Now, we can subtract $(4x)$ from each side as follows:

-2x-5 leq 1

Then, add (5) to each side as follows:

Then, subtract (6) from each side as follows:

$$
2x < -x-2
$$

Then, add $(x)$ to each side as follows:

Then we will divide both sides by $(3)$ in order to remove the $(3)$ from the left side as follows:

$$
dfrac{3x}{3} < dfrac{-2}{3}

$$
x < -dfrac{2}{3}

Now, we can subtract $(x)$ from each side as follows:

$$
-x+1-x > x+1-x

$$
-2x+1 > 1

Then, subtract $(1)$ from each side as follows:

$$
-2x+1-1 > 1-1

Then subtract $(6x)$ from each side as follows:

$$
12x-20-6x geq 6x-6x

Then, add $(20)$ to each side as follows:

$$
6x geq 20

Then we will divide both sides by $(6)$ in order to remove the $(6)$ from the left side as follows:

Then, subtract $(3)$ from each side as follows:

Then we will divide both sides by $(8)$ in order to remove the $(8)$ from the left side as follows:

*(a)* Substituting $x=0$ in this inequality, it yields:
$$
begin{align*}

*(b)* Substituting $x=0$ in this inequality, it yields:
$$
begin{align*}
-6cdot0&<0+ 4<12\
0&< 4<12.

Since $0$ is less than $4$ and $4$ is less than 12, the inequality holds and $0$ is in the solution set of this inequality.
Step 4
4 of 8
*(c)* Substituting $x=0$ in this inequality, it yields:
$$
begin{align*}
-0+1&>0+12\
0&>12.
end{align*}$$
Since $0$ is not greater than 12, the inequality does not hold and $0$ is not in the solution set of this inequality.
Step 5
5 of 8
*(d)* Substituting $x=0$ in this inequality, it yields:
$$
begin{align*}
3cdot0&le0+1le0-1\
0&le 1le -1.

Since $0$ is less than $1$, but $1$ is not less than $-1$, the inequality does not hold and $0$ is not in the solution set of this inequality.
Step 6

*(e)* Substituting $x=0$ in this inequality, it yields:
$$
begin{align*}

*(f)* Substituting $x=0$ in this inequality, it yields:
$$
begin{align*}
0+6&<(0+2)(5cdot0+3)\

$diamond$ Note that: The subtraction and addtion properties of inequalities state,

$$

Now, we will subtract $(9)$ from each side as follows:

$$
-1-9 leq -x+9-9 leq 13-9
$$

$$
-10 leq -x leq 4
$$

Then we will divide each side by $(-1)$ as follows:

$$
dfrac{-10}{-1} geq dfrac{-x}{-1} geq dfrac{4}{-1}
$$

$$
10 geq x geq -4

First, remove the brackets

Then, we will add $(8)$ to each side as follows:

$$
0+8 leq -2x-8+8 leq 6+8
$$

$$

Then we will divide each side by $(-2)$ as follows:

Now, we can subtract $(10)$ from each side as follows:

$$
59-10 < 7x+10-10 < 73-10
$$

$$
49 < 7x < 63
$$

Then we will divide each side by $(7)$ as follows:

$$
dfrac{49}{7} < dfrac{7x}{7} < dfrac{63}{7}

$$
7 < x < 9

Then, we will subtract $(12)$ from each side as follows:

$$
18-12 leq -12x+12-12 leq 48-12
$$

$$
6 leq -12x leq 36

Then we will divide each side by $(-12)$ as follows:

*(b)* Inequalities of this kind we can solve graphicly. In a graphing calculator input both sides of inequality as separate functions $y_1=2^x-3$ (red in *Figure 1*) and $y_2=x+1$ (blue in *Figure 1*). Note the region where the graph of the first function is below the graph of the second function. Furthermore, we can press TRACE and use arrows to move the cursor to the points where graphs meet. There we can read out the values of $x$. The graphs of these functions are depicted in *Figure 1*.
