Find all real number x which satisfy the inequality \( \frac{1}{3}(x + 1) - 1 > \frac{1}{5}(x + 4) \)

Answer Details

13 1 3  (x + 1) - 1 > 15 1 5 (x + 4)  = x+13−1 x + 1 3 − 1  > x+45 x + 4 5  

x+13−x+45−1 x + 1 3 − x + 4 5 − 1  > 0 

= 5x+5−3x−1215 5 x + 5 − 3 x − 12 15  

2x - 7 > 15

2x > 22 = x > 11
