Solve the Inequality for x -29>-3x+7

$- 29 > - 3 x + 7$

Step 1

Rewrite so $x$ is on the left side of the inequality.

$- 3 x + 7 < - 29$

Step 2

Move all terms not containing $x$ to the right side of the inequality.

Subtract $7$ from both sides of the inequality.

$- 3 x < - 29 - 7$

Subtract $7$ from $- 29$ .

$- 3 x < - 36$

Step 3

Divide each term in $- 3 x < - 36$ by $- 3$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $- 3 x < - 36$ by $- 3$ . When multiplying or dividing both sides of an inequality by a negative value, flip the direction of the inequality sign.

$\frac{- 3 x}{- 3} > \frac{- 36}{- 3}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $- 3$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{- 3 x}{- 3} > \frac{- 36}{- 3}$

Divide $x$ by $1$ .

$x > \frac{- 36}{- 3}$

Simplify the right side.

Divide $- 36$ by $- 3$ .

$x > 12$

Step 4

The result can be shown in multiple forms.

Inequality Form:

$x > 12$

Interval Notation:

$(12, \infty)$
