Answer:

Multiply both sides of the inequality by –3. Change the direction of the inequality. Subtract 2 from both sides of the inequality.

Explanation:

the steps to solving the inequality
(g+2)/(-3) <-2

To solve this inequality , we need to isolate g

To get 'g' alone we need to remove the number from the numerator

To remove -3 from the denominator , we multiply by -3 on both sides

when we divide or multiply by a negative number , we flip the inequality sign

< becomes > symbol


-3*(g+2)/(-3) >-2*(-3)


g+2 > 6, then we subtract 2 on both sides


g > 4

Steps are : Multiply both sides of the inequality by –3. Change the direction of the inequality. Subtract 2 from both sides of the inequality.
