5x-10<3x+1
Use the distributive property to multiply 5 by x-2.
5x-10-3x<1
Subtract 3x from both sides.
2x-10<1
Combine 5x and -3x to get 2x.
2x<1+10
Add 10 to both sides.
2x<11
Add 1 and 10 to get 11.
x<\frac{11}{2}
Divide both sides by 2. Since 2 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
