$\"%283%2F10%29x%2B21%3C0\"$
\n" ); document.write( "We need to solve for x as if it were a linear equation. So the first step is to subtract 21 from both sides.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%283%2F10%29x%3C-21\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Next, to isolate x, we need to divide by 3/10, which is equivalent to multiplying by 10/3.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%3C-21%2810%2F3%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "So
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%3C-70\"$ \n" ); document.write( "
