Hello!

Inequality:
-1.2z-8.2 > -9.7

To solve, we need to add 8.2 to both sides of the inequality:


-1.2z-8.2+8.2 > -9.7+8.2\\-1.2z > -1.5

Now to get our solution, we will need to divide both sides by -1.2:


(-1.2z)/(-1.2) > (-1.5)/(-1.2)\\

Final answer:


\fbox{z} < \fbox{1.25}

Hope this helps!
