Answer:
-3 < x
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve inequalities just as we solve equations --- variables to one side and numbers to another and solve. Thus one note:
Whenever we multiply/divide by a negative number, we change (REVERSE) the inequality sign.
Let's solve this:
[tex]-18 < 5x - 3\\-18+3<5x\\-15<5x\\\frac{-15}{5}<x\\-3<x[/tex]
This is kind of awkward because usually "x" (variable) stay to left side and number to right side. But doesn't MATTER!
We can read the solution as :
"x is greater than -3"
This can also be written as:
x > - 3
We can write in both ways. From answer choices, it is
" -3 < x "
