Question

Solve the inequality 7x + 3 < 2x – 12. Clearly show and explain each step please.

Answer 1

7x+3 -3 < 2x-12 -3 Since you want to rid the numbers
7x - 2x < -15 Since it's easier for equation, bring the alphanumeric to lefty and number to righ
x<-15/5 = -3

Answer 2

I know the answer ( x < -3 ), I just don't know (for sure) how to get there.

Answer 3

That is dividing to leave X as the subject of the inequality to find. So X < -3

Answer 4

Is that clear?

Answer 5

Thank you:)
