$y < \frac{3}{4} | x + 2 | + 4$

Step 1

Combine $\frac{3}{4}$ and $| x + 2 |$ .

$y < \frac{3 | x + 2 |}{4} + 4$

Step 2

To write $4$ as a fraction with a common denominator, multiply by $\frac{4}{4}$ .

$y < \frac{3 | x + 2 |}{4} + 4 \cdot \frac{4}{4}$

Step 3

Combine $4$ and $\frac{4}{4}$ .

$y < \frac{3 | x + 2 |}{4} + \frac{4 \cdot 4}{4}$

Step 4

Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

$y < \frac{3 | x + 2 | + 4 \cdot 4}{4}$

Step 5

Multiply $4$ by $4$ .

$y < \frac{3 | x + 2 | + 16}{4}$
