Solve for x. the answer must be simplified. - 36x<8

-36x<8 divide both sides by - 36 (reversing the direction of the inequality sign because of division by a negative number)

x>-8/36 the largest common factor of 8 and 36 is 4 so divide numerator and denominator by this factor, 8 to simplify the fraction

x>-2/9 or in proper notation, x = (-2/9, + oo)
