11x-6%3C6x%2B9 Start with the given inequality.


11x%3C6x%2B9%2B6 Add 6 to both sides.


11x-6x%3C9%2B6 Subtract 6x from both sides.


5x%3C9%2B6 Combine like terms on the left side.


5x%3C15 Combine like terms on the right side.


x%3C%2815%29%2F%285%29 Divide both sides by 5 to isolate x.


x%3C3 Reduce.
