Given the inequality:
$$- 16 x - 63 > 0$$
To solve this inequality, we must first solve the corresponding equation:
$$- 16 x - 63 = 0$$
Solve:
Given the linear equation:
-63-16*x = 0
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 16 x = 63$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -16
x = 63 / (-16)
$$x_{1} = - \frac{63}{16}$$
$$x_{1} = - \frac{63}{16}$$
This roots
$$x_{1} = - \frac{63}{16}$$
is the points with change the sign of the inequality expression.
First define with the sign to the leftmost point:
$$x_{0} < x_{1}$$
For example, let's take the point
$$x_{0} = x_{1} - \frac{1}{10}$$
=
$$- \frac{63}{16} + - \frac{1}{10}$$
=
$$- \frac{323}{80}$$
substitute to the expression
$$- 16 x - 63 > 0$$
$$-63 - \frac{\left(-323\right) 16}{80} > 0$$
8/5 > 0
the solution of our inequality is:
$$x < - \frac{63}{16}$$
