You can put this solution on YOUR website! 20x-3(7x+6)<-8x+16
First, we can distribute the negative 3 to the sum in parentheses:
20x-21x-18<-8x+16
Next, we can combine the like terms on the left side of the inequality:
-1x-18<-8x+16
Then, we can add 18 to both sides:
-1x<-8x+34
Afterwards, we can add 'x' to both sides of the inequality:
0<-7x+34
Then, we can add '7x' to both sides of the problem:
7x<34
Finally, we can divide both sides of the inequality by 7.
x<34/7
