Step1: Expand the right side
First, we expand the right - hand side of the inequality \(3x<3(x - 6)\). Using the distributive property \(a(b + c)=ab+ac\) (here \(a = 3\), \(b=x\), \(c=-6\)), we get \(3x<3x-18\).
Step2: Subtract \(3x\) from both sides
Subtract \(3x\) from both sides of the inequality \(3x<3x - 18\). We have \(3x-3x<3x - 18-3x\). Simplifying both sides, the left - hand side is \(0\) and the right - hand side is \(- 18\). So we obtain the inequality \(0<-18\). But \(0\) is not less than \(-18\), which means there are no real numbers \(x\) that satisfy the original inequality.
