Solve using the same techniques you use to solve equations. Just remember that when solving inequalities, if you multiply or divide by a negative number, you must change the direction of the inequality. This problem only uses addition and subtraction, so no need to change the direction.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"4+%2Bx+%3C+-2\" Subtract 4 from each side to get
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+%3C+-6+\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "This tells us that any value of x that is less than a negative 6 will satisfy the inequality
