Explanation:

The easiest thing to do here is:

4x + 2 = -2 and 4x + 2 = 26

Just know whaever you get for x is greater or less than the actual answer.

4x + 2 = -2

- 2 - 2

4x = -4


(4x)/(4) = (-4)/(4)

x = -1 <--- Because -2 is supposed to be greater than x, x equals any number less than -1 but not -1.

4x + 2 = 26

- 2 - 2

4x = 24


(4x)/(4) = (24)/(4)

x = 6 <--- Because 26 is supposed to be less than x, x equals any numbey greater than 6 but not 6
