2\left(x+2\right)+3\left(4-3x\right)>0
Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 3,2. Since 6 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
2x+4+3\left(4-3x\right)>0
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x+2.
2x+4+12-9x>0
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 4-3x.
2x+16-9x>0
Add 4 and 12 to get 16.
-7x+16>0
Combine 2x and -9x to get -7x.
-7x>-16
Subtract 16 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x<\frac{-16}{-7}
Divide both sides by -7. Since -7 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
x<\frac{16}{7}
Fraction \frac{-16}{-7} can be simplified to \frac{16}{7} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
