To solve the inequality, we need to isolate the variable 'w' on one side.
Let's start by getting rid of fractions by finding a common denominator. The common denominator of 7w and 5w is 35w.
Multiplying every term by 35w, we get:
3(35w/7) + 35w/5 > 9(35w/7) - 4(7w/5)
This simplifies to:
15w + 7(7w/5) > 45w - 28w/5
15w + 49w/5 > 45w - 28w/5
Now, let's combine like terms:
(75w + 49w) / 5 > (225w - 28w) / 5
(124w) / 5 > (197w) / 5
Now, we can cancel out the denominators:
124w > 197w
Next, we want to isolate the variable 'w' on one side. Subtracting 197w from both sides, we get:
124w - 197w > 0
-73w > 0
Finally, we divide both sides by -73, remembering to flip the inequality sign:
w < 0/-73
w < 0
Therefore, the solution to the inequality is w < 0.
3/7w+1>9/7-4/5w
