6+5x<41
Since 6 does not contain the variable to solve for, move it to the right-hand side of the inequality by subtracting 6 from both sides.
5x<-6+41
Add 41 to -6 to get 35.
5x<35
Divide each term in the inequality by 5.
(5x)/(5)<(35)/(5)
Simplify the left-hand side of the inequality by canceling the common factors.
x<(35)/(5)
Simplify the right-hand side of the inequality by simplifying each term.
x<7
