Question 1149722

Can you please help me with the steps in solving this problem? 
-2x - 5 < 3.
<pre>IGNORE the other person's attempt, as it's TOO MUCH work, and too COMPLEX!
- 2x - 5 < 3
- 2x < 3 + 5 ------ Adding 5 to both sides
- 2x < 8
{{{highlight_green(matrix(1,3, x > 8/(- 2), "=====>", x > - 4))}}}, with the INEQUALITY changing because each side is DIVIDED by a number that's < 0
