Question

What is the solution for -3x -24 < -36?

Answer 1

x > 4

Explanation:

Given equation,

→ -3x - 24 < -36

Now the value of x will be,

→ -3x - 24 < -36

→ -3x < -36 + 24

→ -3x < -12

→ x > -12/-3

→ x > 12/3

→ [ x > 4 ]

Hence, the answer is x > 4.

Answer 2

x > 4

Explanation:

-3x -24 < -36

Add 24 to each side

-3x -24+24 < -36+24

-3x< -12

Divide each side by -3, remembering to flip the inequality

-3x/-3 >-12/-3

x > 4
