Question

Solve this inequality. -3x-2 > 7

Answer 1

`x<-3`

Explanation:

So we have the inequality:

`-3x-2>7`

First, let's add 2 to both sides. The left side cancels:

`-3x>9`

Now, let's divide both sides by -3.

Since we're dividing by a negative, we also need to flip the sign. Thus:

`x<-3`

And that's our answer!
