2-3x%3C=8 Start with the given inequality



-3x%3C=8-2Subtract 2 from both sides


-3x%3C=6 Combine like terms on the right side


x%3E=%286%29%2F%28-3%29 Divide both sides by -3 to isolate x (note: Remember, dividing both sides by a negative number flips the inequality sign)



x%3E=-2 Divide

--------------------------------------------------------------
Answer:
So our answer is x%3E=-2
