3x-6<4x+2-2\left(2x+5\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by x-2.
3x-6<4x+2-4x-10
Use the distributive property to multiply -2 by 2x+5.
3x-6<2-10
Combine 4x and -4x to get 0.
3x-6<-8
Subtract 10 from 2 to get -8.
3x<-8+6
Add 6 to both sides.
3x<-2
Add -8 and 6 to get -2.
x<-\frac{2}{3}
Divide both sides by 3. Since 3 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
