19-8c%3E3 Start with the given inequality.


-8c%3E3-19 Subtract 19 from both sides.


-8c%3E-16 Combine like terms on the right side.


c%3C%28-16%29%2F%28-8%29 Divide both sides by -8 to isolate c. note: Remember, the inequality sign flips when we divide both sides by a negative number.


c%3C2 Reduce.
