To solve the inequality \(2x - 4 > 7x - 1\), follow these steps:
Rearrange the inequality: Move all terms involving \(x\) to one side and constant terms to the other side. \[ 2x - 7x > -1 + 4 \]
Combine like terms: \[ -5x > 3 \]
Divide by -5: Remember that when you divide by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality sign. \[ x < -\frac{3}{5} \]
So the solution to the inequality is: \[ x < -\frac{3}{5} \]
