x + 5 > 4x − 10

Question:

x + 5 > 4x − 10

Solution:

We have, $x+5>4 x-10$

$\Rightarrow 5+10>4 x-x$       (Transposing $x$ to the RHS and $-10$ to the LHS)

$\Rightarrow 15>3 \mathrm{x}$

$\Rightarrow 3 x<15$

$\Rightarrow x<5 \quad$ (Dividing both sides by 3 )

$\Rightarrow x \in(-\infty, 5)$

Hence, the solution set of the given inequation is $(-\infty, 5)$.
