Hello, cd3000!

I think I understand . . .

Code:
It says complete the table to solve the inequality: 4 + x < 3x + 2

    x       -1   0   1   2   3
--------------------------------
  4 + x      3   4   5   6   7
 3x + 2     -1   2   5   8  11

I filled in the rest of the table . . . I hope you understand how.

The question is "WHEN is 4 + x less than 3x + 2?"

On the table, the upper row is less than the lower row from x = 2 on up.

We could write: x <u>></u> 2, but it is more accurate to write: . x > 1
