Answer 7

sure give me a sec...

Answer 8

-3(x) greater than + 9

Answer 9

or -9 greater than -3(x)

Answer 10

that didnt solve it

Answer 11

-3x > -9

so now what you do is

you divide both sides by the number next to X

which is 3

-3x / 3 > -9 / 3

which gives you

-x > -3

now because X is a minus to change it to a positive we flip the sign over and change the x to a positive so

x < 3
