Respuesta :

in 4 - (x + 2) < -3(x + 4), x < -7

isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.

Answer:

x<-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Use inverse operations to solve

4 - ( x + 2 ) < -3 ( x+ 4)

first distribute the (-) sign and the (-3)

4 -x -2 < -3x -12

simplify

2 -x < -3x -12

simplify again, with inverse operations

2 -x < -3x -12

+3x    +3x

2 + 2x < -12

-2           -2

2x < -14

/2       /2

x<-7
