4k + 15 is greater than -2k + 3

1 answer

To solve the inequality \( 4k + 15 > -2k + 3 \), follow these steps:

  1. First, get all terms involving \( k \) on one side and the constant terms on the other side. You can start by adding \( 2k \) to both sides:

    \[ 4k + 2k + 15 > 3 \]

    This simplifies to:

    \[ 6k + 15 > 3 \]

  2. Next, subtract 15 from both sides:

    \[ 6k > 3 - 15 \]

    Which simplifies to:

    \[ 6k > -12 \]

  3. Finally, divide both sides by 6:

    \[ k > -2 \]

So, the solution to the inequality is:

\[ k > -2 \]
