answer:

z > - 4

step-by-step explanation:

  • first take out the inequality sign, and use an equal sign
  • this makes it easier to solve
  • it is not required to do it, but helps a lot

-2z - 3 < 5

- - > -2z - 3 = 5

  • now solve this like an equation

-2z - 3 = 5

-2z = 8

z = -4

  • now note that if we divide by a negative number in inequality, the sign FLIPS
  • in this case, this happened when we divided by -2
  • so, we would have to flip the sign
  • before we do that, let's bring the equation back to an inequality

z = -4

- - > z < -4

  • keep everything the way it was
  • now, FLIP the sign

z > - 4
