I have a test on Monday and am doing some practice problems for a study guide right now, but am stuck on this one:

When I went to go check my work, the answer was wrong? Can you please help?
Thank you so much in advance!

-x-4>3x-2
So far I have done this:
-x-4>3x-2
2x-4>-2 ****** ??
2x>-2
x>1
=============
-x-4>3x-2
Add x
-4 > 4x-2
Add 2
-2 > 4x
Turn it around
4x < -2
Divide by 4
x < -1/2
