Q. Solve for

m

.

\newline

-2.1m < -0.7m + 7.42

\newline

Write your answer with

m

first, followed by an inequality symbol.

\newline

______

Isolate m terms: Isolate the m terms on one side of the inequality. $\newline$ -2.1m < -0.7m + 7.42 $\newline$ -2.1m + 0.7m < 7.42 $\newline$ -1.4m < 7.42
Divide and flip inequality: Divide both sides by $-1.4$ to solve for $m$ , remembering to flip the inequality sign because we are dividing by a negative number. $\newline$ \frac{-1.4m}{-1.4} > \frac{7.42}{-1.4} $\newline$ m > -5.3
