1) 2x -3 > 3x -10
-3 + 10 > 3x - 2x
7 > x
x < 7

2) -11x + 9 > (or equal to) -13x + 5
9 -5 > (or equal to) -13x + 11x
4 > (or equal to) -2x
4/ -2 < (or equal to) x
-2 < (or equal to) x
x > (or equal to) x

*remember when multiplying/ dividing by a neg. in an inequality equation, u have to change the inequality sign

first draw a dotted line x=7 (because it's only less than not less than and equal to) on the graph, then shade in the parts where x is less than 7 (ie. on the left side)

same for 2nd question, except draw a solid line

2x - 3 > 3x-10
2x - 3x > -10 + 3
-x > -7
x < 7

-11x + 9 > (or equal to) -13x + 5
-11x + 13x > (or equal to) 5 - 9
2x > (or equal to) -4
