20-(1/3)X = (1/2)X
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru by 6 to get rid of the denominators:
\n" ); document.write( "120 - 2x = 3x
\n" ); document.write( "5x = 120
\n" ); document.write( "x = 24
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "3-3x (greater than) 12
\n" ); document.write( "3-3x > 12
\n" ); document.write( "Add 3x to both sides to get:
\n" ); document.write( "3 > 3x + 12
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 12 from both sides to get:
\n" ); document.write( "3x < -9
\n" ); document.write( "x < -3
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "4(X + 5) greater than 3x +7
\n" ); document.write( "4x + 20 > 3x + 7
\n" ); document.write( "x > -13
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "0.3x +1.7 =0.2x-0.4(5x+1)
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru by 10 to get rid of the decimals:
\n" ); document.write( "3x + 17 = 2x - 4(5x+1)
\n" ); document.write( "x + 17 = -20x -4
\n" ); document.write( "21x = -21
\n" ); document.write( "x = -1
