Let's simplify the given inequality step by step:
2x(x - 4) - (2x + 5)(x - 10) < 2(3.5x + 50)
Expand the parentheses:
2x² - 8x - (2x² - 10x - 20x - 50) < 7x + 100
2x² - 8x - 2x² + 10x + 20x + 50 < 7x + 100
Combine like terms:
(-8x + 10x + 20x) + 50 < 7x + 100
22x + 50 < 7x + 100
Subtract 7x from both sides:
22x - 7x + 50 < 7x - 7x + 100
15x + 50 < 100
Subtract 50 from both sides:
15x + 50 - 50 < 100 - 50
15x < 50
Divide by 15 on both sides:
15x/15 < 50/15
x < 10/3
So, the solution to the given inequality is x < 10/3.
