Which is a correct first step in solving the inequality - 4 (2x - 1) > 5-3x?

Distribute - 4 to get-8x + 4 >5-3x.

Distribute - 4 to get-Bx-1 > 5-3x.

Subtract 2x from both sides of the inequality.

Add 1 to both sides of the inequality.

Answer:-4 (2x - 1) > 5 - 3x

solution:

-4 (2x) - 4 (-1) > 5 - 3x Distribute - 4 to get - 8x + 4 > 5 - 3x

-8x + 4 > 5 - 3x

+3x + 3x

-5x + 4 > 5

- 4 - 4

-5x > 1

: - 5 : - 5

x < - 1/5
