Answer:


\boxed { x < 6}

Explanation:

Solve the following inequality:


-6 < 3x - 4x

-Combine like terms:


-6 < 3x - 4x


-6 < -x

-Switch sides:


-6 < -x


-x > -6

-When you are dividing an integer by a negative integer, then the inequality sign would change. So, to get the variable
x positive, divide both sides by
-1:


(-x)/(-1) > (-6)/(-x)


\boxed { x < 6}

combine like terms

-6<-1x

divide by negative 1 on both sides

flip the sign when dividing by a negative number

6>x is the answer.
