+-3t+%3E=+-t+%2B+3+%2B+9t+
Add +3t+ to both sides
+0+%3E=+3t+-+t+%2B+3+%2B+9t+
Subtract +3+ from both sides
+-3+%3E=+3t+-+t+%2B+9t+
+-3+%3E=+11t+
+-%283%2F11%29+%3E=+t+
Reading the equation from right to left:
+t+%3C=+-%283%2F11%29+
----------------
Check:
+t+=+-%283%2F11%29+
+-3t+%3E=+-t+%2B+3+%2B+9t+
+-3%2A%28-3%2F11%29+%3E=+8%2A%28-3%2F11%29+%2B+3+
+9+%3E=+-24+%2B+33+
+9+%3E=+9+ true
now check for something less than +-%283%2F11%29+,
like +-%284%2F11%29+
+-3%2A%28-4%2F11%29+%3E=+8%2A%28-4%2F11%29+%2B+3+
+12+%3E=+-32+%2B+33+
+12+%3E=+1+ true

I don't see an equation anywhere. But I will help you with your inequality.

Add to both sides:



Multiply both sides by -- remember to reverse the sense of the inequality because you are multiplying by a negative number.
