Answer:


x < 4

Explanation:

In order to isolate the variable in this linear inequality, we need to get rid of the coefficient that multiplies it.

This can be accomplished if both sides are divided by 3.

3x /3 = 0x

12 /3 = 4

So the asnwer is x = 4 (don't forget the less than sign)

ANSWER = x < 4
