3(2x - 3) < 21

1 answer

To solve the inequality, we will simplify the left side of the equation and then isolate the variable.

First, distribute the 3 to every term inside the parentheses:
3 * 2x - 3 * 3 < 21
6x - 9 < 21

Next, add 9 to both sides of the equation to isolate the variable:
6x < 21 + 9
6x < 30

Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 6 to solve for x:
x < 30/6
x < 5

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is x < 5.
