Answer: A) Yes, it is a solution.

=================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

Replace every x with -3 and simplify both sides.

3x - 2 < 2 - 2x

3(-3) - 2 < 2 - 2(-3)

-9 - 2 < 2 + 6

-11 < 8

Since -11 is to the left of 8 on the number line, this means the inequality -11 < 8 is true. Consequently, it means the first inequality is true when x = -3.

Therefore, x = -3 is a solution.
