Answer:

x < -2

Explanation:

So if you want to find x we want to simplify the equation first:

14x - 2 > 20x + 10

We should subtract 10 on both sides first:

14x - 12 > 20x

And then subtract 14x from both sides:

- 12 > 6x

Then we want to divide 6 from both sides:

-2 > x

There ya go:

x is less than -2; x < -2
