In this question, you're solving the inequality for x.

Solve:

-1/3(6x - 15) + 6x > 8x - 11

Distribute the -1/3 to the variables in the parenthesis.

-2x + 5 + 6x > 8x - 11

Combine like terms

4x + 5 > 8x - 11

Subtract 8x from both sides

-4x + 5 > - 11

Subtract 5 from both sides

-4x > -16

Divide both sides by -4, while also flipping the inequality, since you're dividing by a negative.

x < 4

Answer:

x < 4
