I will assume that the leading - before the 22 is a hyphen and not a minus sign. If it were a minus sign there would be no solution.
You may utilize any of the following operations to each element of the compound inequality while still preserving its validity.
(1) Add or subtract a constant.
(2) Multiply or divide by a positive number.
(3) Multiply or divide by a negative number and reverse the signs.
Begin by adding seven to each component to acquire:
29 > - 5 x 4
Divide by 5:
29 5 > - x 4 5
Multiply by -1 and reverse the signs:
- 29 5 < x - 4 5
alternatively, in decimal form:
- 5.8 < x - 0.8
