Answer:

w < 3

Explanation:

One can solve an algebraic inequality just like how one solves an algebraic equation, by using inverse operations. The only major difference is that when one multiplies or divides by a negative number, one must remember to flip the inequality sign, this rule does not come into play in the given inequality.

4x - 2 < 10

+2 +2

4x < 12

/4 /4

w < 3
