Answer:

x > -9

Explanation:

Hello!

We can solve this equation like any normal equation, just remember to flip the sign when dividing or multiplying by a negative number.

  • x/3 + 5 > 2
  • x/3 > -3 => subtracting 5 from both sides
  • x > -9 => Multiplying both sides by 3

Your solution is x > -9
