14 − 3x < −1
What is x?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

14 -3x < -1, subtract 14 from both sides

    -3x < -1 -14, combine like terms

    -3x < -15, divide both sides by -3

        x > 5

! when solving inequalities if we multiply or divide by a negative number the sense of inequality changes.
