solve the linear inequality and write te solution in interval notation

Question

3>1/3w

Answer 1

3 > 1/3w

3(3w) > (1/3w)3w

9w > 1

w > 1/9

 

(1/9,∞)

 

 

Answer 2

Is the equation 3 > (1/3)w or 3 > 1/(3w) ????
If the former case....

Multiplies  both sides by 3:

 

 

9  > w

 

(-infinity,9)

 

 

Otherwise, the equation has solution (1/9, infinity) as David said...
