Solve:
\n" ); document.write( "1)
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5%28x-3%29%2B2+%3C+7\"$ Subtract 2 from both sides of the inequality.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5%28x-3%29+%3C+5\"$ Divide both sides by 5.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x-3+%3C+1\"$ Add 3 to both sides.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+%3C+4\"$
\n" ); document.write( "2)
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5x+%3E+4%282x-3%29\"$ Apply the distributive property to the right side.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5x+%3E+8x-12\"$ Add 12 to both sides.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5x%2B12+%3E+8x\"$ Subtract 5x from both sides.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"12+%3E+3x\"$ Finally, divide both sides by 3.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4+%3E+x\"$ or $\"x+%3C+4\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
