Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You basically want to remove either the +5 or the -1, I suggest removing -1:
To remove, add 1 to each side:
3x+5+1 < 6x-1+1
Which is,
3x+6 < 6x
Now you want to collect all like terms (get all the Xs on one side):
6 < 6x-3x
6 < 3x
Finally, you want to treat the ‘<‘ symbol as ‘=‘ :
6 = 3x
6/3 = x
x = 2
To check, you can substitute the x back in and both sides should be the same:
3(2)+5 < 6(2)-1
11 = 11
