Question

-3x-8>19?I have to solve for x

Answer 1

Solution

For this case we have the following inequality:

-3x-8 >19

We can add 8 in both sides and we got:

-3x > 19 +8

-3x > 27

And then we can divide both sides by -3 and that changes the sign of the inequality and we got:

x < -27/3

x < -9
