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