When solving this inequality, the first step that we would want to consider to first do would be the fact of first doing what would be in 'parenthesis'. By doing this, we would be following the step of (pemdas). (p) = parenthesis. And then, we would then do exponents, and therefore finish off with solving the problem.

-4(3-5x)≥-6x+9
Use distributive property for the left side:
-4(3-5x)=-12+20x
Now solve for x.
