Answer:

[tex]x<-3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the inequality:

[tex]-3x-2>7[/tex]

First, let's add 2 to both sides. The left side cancels:

[tex]-3x>9[/tex]

Now, let's divide both sides by -3.

Since we're dividing by a negative, we also need to flip the sign. Thus:

[tex]x<-3[/tex]

And that's our answer!
