As I understand, your task is to solve this inequality

    -7x + 14 > -3x - 6


             +--------------------+
             |   The steps are:   |
             +--------------------+


(1)  add 7x to both sides. You will get an EQUIVALENT inequality after combining like terms

     14 > 4x - 6.



(2)  add 6 to both sides.   You will get an EQUIVALENT inequality after combining like terms

     20 > 4x


(3)  Divide by 4 both sides.     You will get an EQUIVALENT inequality 

     20/4 > x,  or,  which is the same  x < 5.



It is your ANSWER:  x < 5.

The solution is completed.
