Question
Solve the inequality
x<−23
Alternative Form
x∈(−∞,−23)
Evaluate
32(x−3)−23x−1>6x
Multiply both sides of the inequality by 3×2
(32(x−3)−23x−1)×3×2>6x×3×2
Multiply the terms
More Steps

Multiply the terms
(32(x−3)−23x−1)×3×2
Apply the distributive property
32(x−3)×3×2−23x−1×3×2
Reduce the fraction
2(x−3)×2+(−3x+1)×3
Multiply the terms
4x−12−9x+3
4x−12−9x+3>6x×3×2

Subtract the numbers
−6x
−6x−9>0
Move the constant to the right side
−6x>0+9
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−6x>9
Change the signs on both sides of the inequality and flip the inequality sign
6x<−9
Divide both sides
66x<6−9
Divide the numbers
x<6−9
