18 - x > 11 first subtract 18 from both sides
- x > - 7 now divide both sides (or multiply) by negative 1
x < 7
remember, when you multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number, the inequality changes direction.

18 - x > 11 means ''18 minus x is greater than 11.''
Step by Step solution
18 - x > 11
to make it even, subtract 18 from both sides
-x > -7
to get rid of the negatives, divide both sides by -1
x > 7
there's your answer. x is greater than 7

Pretty easy. X is less than 7. Anything 7 or more makes it false.

Well first you find the the difference between the two numbers. It has to be less than the difference to be true. So x must equal 1,2,3...6
