which is a correct first step in solving the inequality -4(2x - 1) > 5 - 3x? distribute -4 to get -8x + 4 > 5 - 3x. distribute -4 to get -8x - 1 > 5 - 3x. subtract 2x from both sides of the inequality. add 1 to both sides of the inequality.

which is a correct first step in solving the inequality -4(2x - 1) > 5 - 3x? distribute -4 to get -8x + 4 > 5 - 3x. distribute -4 to get -8x - 1 > 5 - 3x. subtract 2x from both sides of the inequality. add 1 to both sides of the inequality.

Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Recall distributive property

The distributive property (a(b - c)=ab - ac). Here (a=-4), (b = 2x) and (c = 1). So (-4(2x-1)=(-4)\times2x-(-4)\times1=-8x + 4).

Answer:

A. Distribute -4 to get -8x + 4 > 5 - 3x.
