3-5x-7x<-27
Subtract 7x from both sides.
3-12x<-27
Combine -5x and -7x to get -12x.
-12x<-27-3
Subtract 3 from both sides.
-12x<-30
Subtract 3 from -27 to get -30.
x>\frac{-30}{-12}
Divide both sides by -12. Since -12 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
x>\frac{5}{2}
Reduce the fraction \frac{-30}{-12} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out -6.
