1 answer

To solve the inequality \(-0.3x > -0.6\), follow these steps:

  1. Divide both sides by -0.3: When you divide or multiply both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality sign.

    \[ x < \frac{-0.6}{-0.3} \]

  2. Calculate the right side:

    \[ x < 2 \]

So the solution to the inequality is \(x < 2\).

The correct answer is C. \(x < 2\).
