Solution
The image provided shows a mathematical inequality that needs to be solved. The inequality is:
Let's solve the inequality step by step.
Step 1: Simplify the expression on the left side
First, distribute the negative sign inside the parentheses:
Combine like terms on the left side:
Step 2: Isolate the variable
Next, let's add to both sides to bring all the terms to the left:
This simplifies to:
Now, subtract 4 from both sides:
Step 3: Solve for
Finally, divide both sides by 11:
Solution
