Answer:

x < -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

To solve for x, you need to isolate/get the variable "x" by itself in the inequality:

12x + 7 < -11      Subtract 7 on both sides

12x + 7 - 7 < -11 - 7

12x < -18     Divide 12 on both sides to get "x" by itself

$\frac{12x}{12}$

$x$    Simplify the fraction

$x$       (x is any number less than -3/2)
