    -2x > 12 OR - 2 (x + 1) < - 10

    Each inequality is solved separately.

    The first one, divide both sides by - 2, when you divide by a negative, you change the inequality sign.

    So x < 6

    For the second inequality, distribute the - 2, this gives us - 2X - 2< - 10.

    Add 2 to both sides.

    -2x < - 8

    Divide both sides by - 2.

    When dividing by a negative you change the inequality sign

    So x > 4

    The answer is:

    x 4
