-9%2F13%3C-%286%2F13%29x Start with the given inequality.


cross%2813%29%28-9%2Fcross%2813%29%29%3Ccross%2813%29%28-6%2Fcross%2813%29%29x Multiply both sides by 13.


-9%3C-6x Simplify.


%28-9%29%2F%28-6%29%3Ex Divide both sides by -6. Remember, dividing both sides of the inequality by a negative number will flip the sign.


3%2F2%3Ex Reduce.

So the answer is x%3C3%2F2
