+2x-%284x+%2B3%29%3C6x+%2B3%28x%2B4%29+
Distribute the -1 on the left and the +3 on the right
+2x+-4x+-3+%3C+6x+%2B3x+%2B12+
Combine like terms on each side
+-2x+-3+%3C+3x+%2B+12+
add 2x to both sides
+-2x+%2B+2x+-3+%3C+3x+%2B2x+%2B+12+
Combine like terms
+-3+%3C+5x+%2B12+
subtract 12 from both sides
+-3+-12+%3C+5x+%2B12+-12+
Combine like terms
+-15+%3C+5x+
Divide by 5
+-3+%3C+x+
Flip Flop the WHOLE inequality
+x+%3E+-3+
