2%28-3m-5%29%3E=-28 Start with the given inequality.


-6m-10%3E=-28 Distribute.


-6m%3E=-28%2B10 Add 10 to both sides.


-6m%3E=-18 Combine like terms on the right side.


m%3C=%28-18%29%2F%28-6%29 Divide both sides by -6 to isolate m. note: Remember, the inequality sign flips when we divide both sides by a negative number.


m%3C=3 Reduce.

Answer:

So the solution is m%3C=3
