-2(x+6)>x+4
\n" ); document.write( "-2x-12>x+4
\n" ); document.write( "-2x-x>4+12
\n" ); document.write( "-3x>16
\n" ); document.write( "x<16/-3 when dividing by a negative value the > sign changes to a < sign.
\n" ); document.write( "x<-16/3 answer.
\n" ); document.write( "Proof:
\n" ); document.write( "let x=-17/3
\n" ); document.write( "-2(-17/3+6)>-17/3+4
\n" ); document.write( "-2([-17+6*3]/3)>(-17+3*4)/3
\n" ); document.write( "-2([-17+18]/3)>(-17+12)/3
\n" ); document.write( "-2(1/3)>-5/3
\n" ); document.write( "-2/3>-5/3
