4x%2B3%3C6x%2B7 Start with the given inequality.


4x%3C6x%2B7-3 Subtract 3 from both sides.


4x-6x%3C7-3 Subtract 6x from both sides.


-2x%3C7-3 Combine like terms on the left side.


-2x%3C4 Combine like terms on the right side.


x%3E%284%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%3E-2 Reduce.
