Given the inequality equation:
3x + 6 < 21
Solve for x.
Solution:
In order to sovle for x, we must transpose 6 to the other side of the equation, hence it must be taken to note that in transposing a number, the sign cahnges.
3x + 6 < 21
3x < 21 - 6
3x < 15
Divide both sides by 3 in order to determine the value of x.
3x/3 < 15/3
x < 5
Final answer:
x < 5
