Answer:


\large\boxed{g<34}

Explanation:


g+2-2(g-16)>0\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\ a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\\g+2+(-2)(g)+(-2)(-16)>0\\\\g+2-2g+32>0\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\(g-2g)+(2+32)>0\\\\-g+34>0\qquad\text{subtract 34 from both sides}\\\\-g>-34\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\g<34
