Answer:
x > -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the inequality using the distributive property (multiply the term outside the bracket with each number inside the bracket). Then, isolate 'x' by performing the reverse operations for every number that's on the same side as 'x'. (Reverse operations 'cancel out' a number.)
18 < -3(4x - 2) Expand this to simplify
18 < (-3)(4x) - (-3)(2) Multiply -3 with 4x and -2
18 < -12x + 6 Start isolating 'x'
18 - 6 < -12x + 6 - 6 Subtract 6 from both sides
18 - 6 < -12x '+ 6' is cancelled out on the right side
12 < -12x Subtracted 6 from 18 on the left side
12/-12 < -12x/-12 Divide both sides by -12
12/-12 < x 'x' is isolated. Simplify left side
-1 < x Answer
x > -1 Standard formatting puts variable on the left side
