Question

solve for $x$ and graph the solution on the number line below.
$-3x > -3$
answer attempt 1 out of 2
$<$, $>$, $\leq$, $\geq$, or
inequality notation:
number line:

Explanation:

Step1: Divide both sides by -3

When dividing an inequality by a negative number, reverse the inequality sign.
$\frac{-3x}{-3} < \frac{-3}{-3}$

Step2: Simplify both sides

Calculate the division to isolate $x$.
$x < 1$

Step3: Graph the solution

On the number line, draw an open circle at 1 (since $x$ is strictly less than 1, not equal to 1) and shade all numbers to the left of 1.

Answer:

Inequality Notation: $x < 1$
Number Line: Open circle at 1, shading to the left towards negative infinity.
