3x+3\left(-\frac{7}{3}\right)<x+1
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by x-\frac{7}{3}.
3x-7<x+1
Cancel out 3 and 3.
3x-7-x<1
Subtract x from both sides.
2x-7<1
Combine 3x and -x to get 2x.
2x<1+7
Add 7 to both sides.
2x<8
Add 1 and 7 to get 8.
x<\frac{8}{2}
Divide both sides by 2. Since 2 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
x<4
Divide 8 by 2 to get 4.
