3(x + 1) < 18
First we have to apply the Distribution Property to the left side of the inequality.
3(x + 1) = 3(x) + 3(1)
3x + 3 < 18
Now we get the term 3x alone by subtracting 3 on both sides.
3x + 3 - 3 < 18 - 3
3x < 18
Now all we have to do is get x alone to find out what would be the values of x is. And since the number we are dividing by isn’t a negative, we don’t have to flip the sign.
3x/3 < 18/3
x < 6
