Math Problem Statement

−6>−x+3

Solution

The inequality given is:

6>x+3-6 > -x + 3

To solve for xx, follow these steps:

  1. Subtract 3 from both sides to isolate the term involving xx on the right-hand side: 63>x-6 - 3 > -x This simplifies to: 9>x-9 > -x

  2. Now, to solve for xx, multiply both sides of the inequality by 1-1. Remember that when multiplying or dividing both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality sign
