False; they are equal.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is x + 20 > 4x - 1.
First, do the opposite of - 1 and add one to the other side while - 1+1 cancels out. Now it's x+21 > 4x. Now subtract x from both sides. Positive x minus negative x cancels out and 4x minus x or 1x is 3x. Now you're left with 21> 3x. Now do the inverse operation of multiplication and divide both sides by 3. Now the 3x over 3 cancels out and 21 divided by 3 is 7. So x is 7. If you substitute it in. It will be 7+20 which is 27 which is great than 4 (7) - 1 which is 28-1. 28-1 is 27. So, the equation is false. They are equal.
