\(2x + 1 > 3x + 2\)
or \(x < -1\)
\(5x + 2 > 4x\)
or \(x > -2\)
Therefore \(-2 < x < -1\)
So, QTY A < QTY B

Turns out that we can solve this with only the first inequality: 2x + 1 > 3x + 2
Take: 2x + 1 > 3x + 2 Subtract 2x from both sides: 1 > x + 2 Subtract 2 from both sides: -1 > x
Since x is less than -1, we can be certain that x is less than 1
Answer: B
