Explanation:

i got the correct answer

Answer 2

The solution of the inequality is
`(-2.5,\infty)`.

Explanation:

The given inequality is

`-3x<7.5`

If an inequality divided by a negative number,then the sign of inequality change. Divide both sides by -3.

`(-3x)/(-3) >(7.5)/(-3)`

`x >-2.5`

Therefore the solution of the given inequality is all real numbers greater than -2.5.

In interval notation it can be defined as

`(-2.5,\infty)`
