Question

-9x + 15 > -30 ? And a explanation

Answer 1

Answer:

$x < 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Subtract 15 from both sides

$-9x + 15 - 15 > -30 - 15$

$-9x > -45$

Step 2:  Divide both sides by -9

$-9x / -9 > -45 / -9$

Since you divided by a negative, you must flip the sign.

$-9x / -9 > -45 / -9$

$x < 5$

Answer:  $x < 5$
