Answer 1

\[\frac{x}{-6} > 3\]

Answer 2

With inequalities, just like equalities, you can always multiply both sides with the same number, and the equation will still hold. 2 < 4, 4 < 8, etc.
Whenever there is a minus sign involved in an inequality, you should always be careful. For example, -2 < 4, correct right?
Now try multiplying both sides by minus one: 2 < -4. Weird right?
Whenever you multiply both sides of an inequality with a negative number, you should flip the greater than or less than sign.

Answer 3

I understand

Answer 4

Try simplifying first by multiplying both sides by a positive number, so that you isolate x, please :)
