On the number line, the value is at x< -1

The number line is a graphical representation of numbers placed along a straight line.

It extends infinitely in both positive and negative directions from zero, allowing the visualization and comparison of numerical values. It's a fundamental tool in mathematics used to illustrate arithmetic operations, inequalities, and relationships between numbers.

From the information given, we have;

−3x + 3 < 6

collect the like terms

-3x < 6 - 3

subtract the values

-3x < 3

divide the values

x < -1
