Always remember, in inequatlities, the variable should be in +.
OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):
Please confirm your question,
\[-\frac{3}{1-x} < 9\]This?
OpenStudy (mertsj):
I've got to give you a medal just because of your inability to find your asymptote.

o_O
OpenStudy (cantfindasymptotewithbothhands):
Yep Saifoo, that's it. I cross multiplied & distributed the numerator, then got stuck. I'm here: [9-9x]/-3

Help @Mertsj @Zarkon
@CantFindAsymptoteWithBothHands , can't solve. :l
OpenStudy (mertsj):
\[\frac{-3}{1-x}=\frac{3}{x-1}<9\]
OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):
im stuck after this step!
OpenStudy (mertsj):
\[\frac{3}{x-1}-9<0\]
OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):
Awesome.

\[\frac{3-9x+9}{x-1}<0\]
OpenStudy (mertsj):
\[\frac{9x+12}{x-1}<0\]

Take it away saifoo
OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):
i still dont know how to get two answers. :l

9x + 12 < 0 and x - 1 < 0 ?
x < -4/3 and x < 1 ?
Now sure.
OpenStudy (mertsj):
I made a sign error. It's -9x+12 in the numerator.
OpenStudy (cantfindasymptotewithbothhands):
I messed up when I cross multiplied, was treating it as addition/subtraction rather than an equality/inequality
