Answer:


x > ( - 11 - 22)/(2)

Explanation:

Step 1: Subtract 7x7x from both sides.

−11<9x+22.−7x

Step 2:Simplify 9x+22.-7x9x+22.−7x to 2x+22.2x+22.

−11<2x+22.

Step 3:Subtract 22.22. from both sides.

−11−22.<2x

Step 4:Divide both sides by 22.


( - 11 - 22)/(2) < x

Step 5, Switch sides.


x > ( - 11 - 22)/(2)

I hope it helps you.

Answer:

x>-33/2

Explanation:

this is because you must solve the equation. when you divide by a negative number in order to get the x alone the sign of the inequality flips.
