-%288%2F5%29t-3%3Ct%2B9
Just like solving equality problems,
t on one side, everything else on the other.
-%288%2F5%29t-t-3%3C9
-%288%2F5%29t-%285%2F5%29t-3%3C9
-%28%288%2B5%29%2F5%29t-3%3C9
-%2813%2F5%29t-3%3C9
-%2813%2F5%29t%3C12
t%3E12%28-5%2F13%29 Note the direction of the sign changed (multiplication by negative number).
t%3E-%2860%2F13%29
