1. Solve the inequality: 5x + 7 > 3(x + 1). Show all steps in your solution.

2. Explain how to isolate the variable in the inequality 4(2x - 1) ≤ 3x + 8. What steps do you take to simplify both sides, and what do you do if you need to multiply or divide by a negative number?

3. Given the inequality 9 - 2x < 3(x - 1), determine the solution for x. Provide a detailed explanation of your reasoning and check your solution by substituting a value back into the original inequality.
