You can put this solution on YOUR website!
-3x>-6
Divide both side by -3. [Remember to reverse the inequality symbol to less than because you divided by a negative value.]
-3x/-3 < -6/-3
x< 2

_______________________________
x-5<2
Add 5 to both sides of the equation to isolate the x on the left side of the inequality symbol.]
x-5+5 <2+5
x<7
