Did I do this right?

Solve the following inequality.

-5 > -5 - 3w

(-5 + 5) > (-5 + 5) - 3w

0 > 0 - 3w

(0 / 3w) > 0 (-3w / -3)

0 < w

w > 0

Yes those are the correct steps and answer, reverse the inequality sign when dividing or multiplying by a negative number.
Answered by Reiny
way too many steps....

-5 > -5 - 3w
add 5+3w to both sides, addition does nothing to the inequality sign
3w > 0
divide by +3, no change in inequality sign needed
w > 0
