Answer:

The require step to solve the inequality

[tex]-4x < 8[/tex] is

Divide by -4 on each side and flip the sign.

[tex]\therefore x<-2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

What steps should be followed to solve the inequality

[tex]-4x < 8[/tex]

Solution:

[tex]-4x < 8[/tex]

Divide by -4 on each side and flip the sign.

So the equation becomes

[tex]\dfrac{-4x}{-4}> \dfrac{8}{-4}\\ \\[/tex]

Now minus 4 will get cancel from left and side and in right inside -2 will be there such that (flip the sign)

[tex]\dfrac{x}{1}> \dfrac{-2}{1}\\\\\therefore x>-2[/tex]

Answer:

Divide by -4 on each side and flip the sign.

Hope I helped :v
