4x%2B2-6x%3C-1 Start with the given inequality.


-2x%2B2%3C-1 Combine like terms on the left side.


-2x%3C-1-2 Subtract 2 from both sides.


-2x%3C-3 Combine like terms on the right side.


x%3E%28-3%29%2F%28-2%29 Divide both sides by -2 to isolate x. note: Remember, the inequality sign flips when we divide both sides by a negative number.


x%3E3%2F2 Reduce.

Answer:

So the solution is x%3E3%2F2
