Question

What values are solutions to this inequality?-3x - 5 > 28

Answer 1

Given the following inequality:

`-3x-5>28`

Let's simplify to find ,

`-3x-5>28`
`-3x>28\text{ + 5}`
`-3x>33`
`\text{ }(-3x)/(-3)<(33)/(-3)`
`\text{ }x<-11`

Therefore, the possible solutions to this inequality are all numbers that are less than -11 up to the negative infinity.

Solution: (-∞, -11)

`-3x-5>28`

simplify to find x
