Turn 7 into a fraction so it can be multiplied. > 7/1
Multiply 7/1 by 1/3.
7/1 × 1/3 = 7/3
Simplify 7/3 into a mixed number.
7/3 = 2 1/3

distribution (if we are talking about algebraic properties)
Our given inequality is:
-7x < -42
To solve for the inequality, we need to simplify for x and ensure we've carefully answered the question.
Currently, x is being multiplied by -7.
To get x by itself, we need to perform the opposite of what's being done.
Remember, what you do to one side of an equation/inequality, you must do to the other.
The opposite of multiplying is dividing.
Divide -7x by -7 to get x.
-7x / -7 = x
-42 / -7 = 6 (Dividing a negative by a negative makes a positive, the same goes with multiplying)
You're left with x < 6
When we divide/multiply by a negative, we need to flip the inequality with the opposite value.
Your final inequality is:
x _> 6
I hope this helps you. :)
