You can put this solution on YOUR website! -2(n+1)-3<1 Multiply first
 -2n-2-3<1
 Add like terms on the left side of inequality
 -2n-5<1
 Now add 5 to both sides to put your constant on the right side of the inequality
 -2n-5+5<1+5
 -2n<6
 Now divide both sides of the inequality by -2.Remember that dividing by a negative number "flips" the inequality sign.
 -2n/-2>6/-2
 n>-3
