Absolute value means the distance the number zero.

(3x+2) is (3x+2) from 0.

So right now, 3x+2>9, you have to get rid of the 2 on the left side (because you don't want the variable and the constant on the same side) .

Subtract 2 from the left side and 2 from the right.

Now it is 3x > 9-2

9-2=7

3x > 7

♡ Hope this helps! ♡
