Answer:

x < -7

Step-by-step explanation:

An inequality is solved similar to an equation with the exception that when multiplying or dividing by a negative coefficient, the sign must flip in the other direction.  The original inequality is:

-6x > 42

To solve, you need to divide both sides of the inequality by -6, however, since you are dividing by a negative coefficient, the sign need to flip the other way:

-6x/-6 > 42/-6 = x < -7
