Isolate variable term: Isolate the variable term in -7x > 10. To do this, we need to divide both sides of the inequality by −7, remembering that when we divide or multiply both sides of an inequality by a negative number, the direction of the inequality sign changes. So, -7x / -7 < 10 / -7
Perform division to solve: Perform the division to solve for x.x < -\frac{10}{7}
Simplify the fraction: Simplify the fraction if possible.However, −710 is already in its simplest form, so the solution is x < -\frac{10}{7}.
