Answer: x > 2</h3>
Work Shown:
5x - 14x < - 18
-9x < - 18
x > -18/(-9)
x > 2
The inequality sign flips when dividing both sides by a negative number.
Here's another approach you could take.
5x - 14x < - 18
-9x < -18
0 < -18+9x
18 < 9x
9x > 18
x > 18/9
x > 2
It's a slightly longer pathway, but it avoids a sign flip when you divide both sides by the positive number 9.
The sign flip happens two steps earlier when going from 18 < 9x to 9x > 18. In other words, A < B is the same as B > A.

Answer:
4 GB
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "g" represent the number of gigabytes of data used. Then the phone bill is computed as ...
bill = 65 + 12g
Aurora's bill is 113, so we can put that value into the equation and solve for g.
113 = 65 + 12g
48 = 12g . . . . . . subtract 65 from both sides of the equation
4 = g . . . . . . . . . divide both sides of the equation by 12
Aurora used 4 gigabytes of data in September.
_____
You can also use your mathematical reasoning to solve this problem. The total bill consists of two charges: a fixed charge of 65 and a charge that depends on data. If you subtract the fixed charge from the bill, you find that the charge that depends on data is 113-65 = 48.
The data charge is 12 times the number of gigabytes. The data charge on the bill is 48, which is 12 times 4. Then the number of gigabytes is 4.
