The question should have been ho do I solve how do I solve - 0.3x < -24 but the box would not let me use the equality sign
an equation is a number sentence with and = sign
Without an equality sign the information given does not qualify it to be an equation
You simplify expressions and solve equations. You don't simplify something that has an equal sign, and you don't solve something that doesn't have an equal sign. For examples, you simplify 2/4 and solve x + 0 = 1
You cant solve it unless it is an equation. To be an equation it must have an equals sign.
