2x<-2/3(4x+4) expand (Distributive Properties of Multiplication). Watch your + and - signs:
\n" ); document.write( "2x < -8/3x-8/3 add 8/3x to both sides:
\n" ); document.write( "14/3x < -8/3 multiply both sides times 3
\n" ); document.write( "14x = -8
\n" ); document.write( "x = -8/14 simplify:
\n" ); document.write( "x < -4/7 \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
