Step-by-step explanation:

The first step would be to distribute the parenthesis on the left side

- 4 (2x - 1) > 5 - 3x, then

- 8x + 4 > 5 - 3x

Ruth Joseph · Answer 2

Answer with explanation:

The given Inequality is

⇒ - 4 (2 x-1) ≥ 5 - 3 x

We will use Distributive property of Multiplication with respect to Subtraction to evaluate the first step

⇒-4 * 2 x + (-4) * (-1) ≥ 5 - 3 x

⇒ - 8 x + 4 ≥ 5 - 3 x
