Answer:

x > -1/4

Explanation:

-3/5x + 1/5 > 7/20

Subtract 1/5 from each side, you'll have to change 1/5 to 4/20 so they have the same denominator. 7/20 - 4/20 + 3/20

-3/5x > 3/20

Divide each side by -3/5

To divide fractions, you flip the second fraction and then multiply so you would have 3/20 times -5/3.

-3 * 5 = -15

20 * 3 = 60

Answer is -15/60 which simplifies to -1/4

x > -1/4
