Answer:
x > -9
Explanation:
The solution to the inequality is obtained as follows:
-3x -7 < 20
-3x - 7 + 7 < 20 + 7
-3x < 27
-3x/(-3) > 27/(-3)
x > -9
Notice that when you divide by a negative number, the inequality sign changes.
In the picture attached, the graph of the solution s shown. Notice that -9 is not included in the solution.
