Solve 2(3p+1)>-4

$$2 ( 3 p + 1 ) > - 4$$

Solve for p

$$p>-1$$

Solution Steps

Divide both sides by 2. Since 2 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.

$$3p+1>\frac{-4}{2}$$

Divide -4 by 2 to get -2.

$$3p+1>-2$$

Subtract 1 from both sides.

$$3p>-2-1$$

Subtract 1 from -2 to get -3.

$$3p>-3$$

Divide both sides by 3. Since 3 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.

$$p>\frac{-3}{3}$$

Divide -3 by 3 to get -1.

$$p>-1$$
