Answer:
D) x > 8
Step-by-step explanation:
14 -2(x + 1) < -4 <== distribute -2
14 -2(x) + -2(1) < -4
14 -2x - 2 < -4 <== combine like terms
12 - 2x < -4 <== subtract 12 from both sides
-12 -12
-2x < -16 <== divide both sides by -2
/-2 /-2
x > 8
Note: when dividing both sides of an inequality with a negative sign, the sign changes (flips).
Hope this helps!
