\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"-3x-8%3C16\" Start with the given inequality.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"-3x%3C16%2B8\" Add \"8\" to both sides.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"-3x%3C24\" Combine like terms on the right side.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%3E%2824%29%2F%28-3%29\" Divide both sides by \"-3\" to isolate \"x\". note: Remember, the inequality sign flips when we divide both sides by a negative number. \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%3E-8\" Reduce.\r
