Question

How do you solve `-2/3x+3<11`?

Answer 1

`x > -12`

Explanation:

`- 2/3 x + 3 < 11`

subtract `3` to both sides
`- 2/3 x + 3 - 3 < 11 - 3`

`- 2/3 x < 8`

bescause the coefficient of `x` is -ve value, change the position to become +ve value.
`-8 < 2/3 x`

multiply both sides with `3/2`
`-8 * 3/2 < 2/3 x * 3/2`

`-12 < x` or `x > -12`
