Answer :

You subtract -8 from -12 and then you have -4x>-20 and when you divide a negative number the sign switches so you get X<5

Answer:

 x < 5

Step-by-step explanation:

8-4x>-12

One solution was found :

                  x < 5

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the greater than sign from both sides of the inequality :

                    8-4*x-(-12)>0

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Pulling out like terms :

1.1     Pull out like factors :

  20 - 4x  =   -4 • (x - 5)

Equation at the end of step  1  :

Step  2  :

2.1    Divide both sides by  -4

Remember to flip the inequality sign:

Solve Basic Inequality :

2.2      Add  5  to both sides

            x < 5
