-4%28x%2B2%29%3C=-9x%2B6 Start with the given inequality.


-4x-8%3C=-9x%2B6 Distribute.


-4x%3C=-9x%2B6%2B8 Add 8 to both sides.


-4x%2B9x%3C=6%2B8 Add 9x to both sides.


5x%3C=6%2B8 Combine like terms on the left side.


5x%3C=14 Combine like terms on the right side.


x%3C=%2814%29%2F%285%29 Divide both sides by 5 to isolate x.
