thats right but can you tell me why?
-3-x<1 3+x>-1 x>-4
\[-3-x<1\] \[-3<x+1\] \[-4<x\] x is GREATER than -4
well i got that but why isnt it -\[\infty\]
-x < 4 x > -4 when dividing both sides by a negative the inequality sign flips

oh yeah i knew that... lol
oh ok so you also understand why its (-4,inf) right
you can multiply by a negative number and change signs if you like. but you can also just add to both sides to assure that the coefficient of x is positive
\[-x>10\] \[-x+x>10+x\] \[0>10+x\] \[-10>x\]
yeah that might be easier so i dont forget, thanks
