%283z-2%29%2F-5%3C6 Start with the given inequality


cross%28-5%29%283z-2%29%2Fcross%28-5%29%3E-5%2A6 Multiply both sides by -5 to get rid of the fraction. Note: when you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, the sign will flip.


3z-2%3E-30 Multiply


3z%2Bcross%28-2%2B2%29%3E-30%2B2 Add 2 to both sides


3z%3E-28 Add


cross%283%2F3%29z%3E-28%2F3 Divide both sides by 3 to isolate z


So our answer is z%3E-28%2F3
