Solution
The inequality problem in the image is:
Let's solve this step by step.
Step 1: Expand both sides of the inequality
First, expand the squares on the left-hand side:
So the inequality becomes:
Step 2: Simplify the left-hand side
Now, subtract the expressions:
Simplifying further:
Now, the inequality becomes:
Step 3: Simplify the inequality
Subtract from both sides:
This is always true, because is indeed greater than .
Conclusion:
The inequality is always true, so the solution is that can be any real number.
