20.  Solve the inequality  2   -   3 x 4   <   5 .

Dear student,

We have,2-3x4<5which means-5<2-3x4<5   I           II          III solving by taking I and II termwe get, -5<2-3x4-5×4<2-3x4×4             ..[by multiplying by 4 on both sides]-20<2-3x-20+20<2-3x+20            ..[by adding 20 to both sides]0<-3x+22-22<-3x+22-22              ..[by subtracting 22 from both sides]-22<-3x22>3x                                     ..[by multiplying by -1 on both sides]223>3x3                                  ..[dividing by 3 on both sides]x<22Now solving by taking II and III term2-3x4<52-3x4×4<5×4          ..[by multiplying by 4 on both sides]2-3x<202-3x-20<20-20           ..[by subtracting 20 from both sides]-3x-18<0-3x-18+18<0+18                   ...[adding 18 to both sides]-3x<18-3x3<183                              ....[dividing by 3 on both sides]-x<6x>-6                           ...[multiplying by -1 on both sides]Thus we get-6<x<22
