Solution Steps

To solve the inequality \(\frac{x}{-3} > \frac{3}{2}\), we need to isolate \(x\). We can do this by multiplying both sides of the inequality by \(-3\). Remember that when multiplying or dividing both sides of an inequality by a negative number, the inequality sign must be reversed.

Solution Approach
  1. Multiply both sides of the inequality by \(-3\).
  2. Reverse the inequality sign.
  3. Simplify the resulting expression to find the value of \(x\).
Step 1: Multiply Both Sides by \(-3\)

Given the inequality: \[ \frac{x}{-3} > \frac{3}{2} \] we multiply both sides by \(-3\) to isolate \(x\). Remember to reverse the inequality sign when multiplying by a negative number: \[ x < \left(\frac{3}{2}\right) \times (-3) \]

Step 2: Simplify the Expression

Simplify the right-hand side of the inequality: \[ x < \frac{3 \times (-3)}{2} = \frac{-9}{2} = -4.5 \]

Final Answer

\[ \boxed{x < -4.5} \]

Isopropanol, (CH3)2CHOH, is an organic compound that is a common ingredient in many disinfectants. Which statement best describes an isopropanol molecule? A hydrocarbon that is classified as an alkene because it has at least one double bond. A hydrocarbon that is classified as an aromatic because it has a ring structure of six-alternating carbon-carbon single bonds and double bonds. A small organic compound that will also mix with water because it contains a dipole moment in its chemical structure. A large organic compound that will not dissolve in water because it is mostly nonpolar in its chemical structure.
