Answer 2

4 - (x + 2) < -3(x + 4) -- distribute through the parenthesis
4 - x - 2 < -3x - 12 -- combine like terms
2 - x < -3x - 12 -- add 3x to both sides
2 - x + 3x < -3x - 12 -- combine like terms
2 + 2x < - 12 -- subtract 2 from both sides
2x < - 12 - 2 -- combine like terms
2x < - 14 -- divide both sides by 2
x < - 7
