Solving Multistep Inequalities Challenge

This video tutorial covers solving multi-step inequalities, similar to solving multi-step equations but with comparisons instead of equalities. It explains the process of simplifying inequalities, using inverse operations, and graphing solutions. The tutorial also emphasizes checking solutions by substituting values and ensuring the graph direction is correct. Key concepts include the importance of flipping inequality signs when multiplying or dividing by negative numbers.

What is the first step in solving the inequality 7(x + 3) < 28?
