Answer:

x >-2

Explanation:

We can add 4 to both sides.

Now the equation is -3x<2+4

Simplify to get: -3x<6

Divide by -3 to get x alone

x<-2

Flip the sign since you divided by a negative

x>-2

Answer:

0 and 3 are solution of inequality.

Explanation:

Given : -3x – 4 < 2.

To find : Which values are solutions to the inequality.

Solution : We have given

-3x – 4 < 2.

For x = -4 .

-3 ( -4) -4 < 2 .

12 -4< 2.

8 < 2

Which is false statement .

For x = -2 .

-3 ( -2) < 2

6 < 2

This is false statement so, this is not the solution of inequality .

For x = 0 .

3( 0) -4 < 2 .

-4 < 2

We know that negative value is always less than positive .

So, x = 0 is solution of inequality.

For x = 3

-3 ( 3) - 4 < 2

-9 - 4 < 2

-13 < 2

This is also he solution of inequality.

Hence there are two solution 0 ,3.

Therefore, 0 and 3 are solution of inequality.
