EXPLANATION

Given the inequality

-15 < -4x - 3

Adding +4x to both sides:

-15 + 4x < -4x + 4x -3

Adding +15 to both sides:

-15 + 15 + 4x < -3 + 15

Simplifying:

4x < -15 - 3

Adding like terms:

4x < -15 - 3

Dividing both sides by 4:

x < -18/4

Simplifying the fraction:

x < -4.5

The solution is x<-4.5
