-7x + 13 > -2x + 9 Add 7x on both sides

-7x + 13 + 7x > -2x + 9 + 7x

13 > 5x + 9 Subtract 9 on both sides

13 - 9 > 5x + 9 - 9

4 > 5x Divide 5 on both sides to get "x" by itself


(4)/(5) > x

-7x+13 > -2x+9

add 7x to each side

-7x+7x+13 > -2x+7x+9

13> 5x+9

subtract 9 from each side

13-9> 5x+9-9

4 > 5x

divide each side by 5

4/5 >x
