Bot GPT 3.5 To solve the inequality, you need to isolate the variable x on one side of the inequality sign.
-4x - 5 < 31
First, add 5 to both sides to get rid of -5:
-4x < 36
Next, divide both sides of the inequality by -4. When you divide by a negative number, you need to flip the inequality sign.
x > 36 / -4
Simplifying the right side gives:
x > -9
So the solution set for the inequality is all real numbers greater than -9.
