1.5x<-8+5
Add 5 to both sides.
1.5x<-3
Add -8 and 5 to get -3.
x<\frac{-3}{1.5}
Divide both sides by 1.5. Since 1.5 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
x<\frac{-30}{15}
Expand \frac{-3}{1.5} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.
x<-2
Divide -30 by 15 to get -2.
