Solve for xx
minus, 3, x, is greater than, minus, 3
−3x>
−3
To solve for x in the inequality -3x > -3, we need to divide both sides by -3. However, when we divide by a negative number, the inequality sign flips.
-3x > -3
x < 1
Therefore, x is less than 1.
On a graph should it have an open circle on no
When graphing the solution x < 1 for the inequality -3x > -3, the graph should have an open circle at x = 1.
This is because x is less than 1, but not equal to 1. An open circle indicates that the endpoint is not included in the solution set. The inequality x < 1 represents all real numbers less than 1, but not including the number 1 itself.
