≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡
1) The first step is to add x to each side
40 < 3x+x
2) Next you simplify 3x+x. To simplify 3x+x you add the x to 3. 3x+x = 4x
40 < 4x
3) Divide both of the sides by 4
[tex] \frac{40}{4} [/tex] < x
4) Simplify the fraction [tex] \frac{40}{4} [/tex] to 10. You simplify it to ten because 40 ÷ 4 = 10.
10<x
5) Answer
x= > 10
