Answer:
x > -22/9
Explanation:
- 9x/11 - 7 < -5
Add 7 to both sides.
- 9x/11 - 7 + 7 < -5 + 7
- 9x/11 < 2
Multiply both sides by 11.
-9x/11 × 11 < 2 × 11
-9x < 22
Divide both sides by -9, reverse sign.
-9x/-9 < 22/-9
-9x/11 < 2 (add 7 to both sides)
-9x < 22 (multiply both sides by 11)
x > 22/-9 (Switch the sign because you are dividing by a negative number)
