4x-8<7x+1
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by x-2.
4x-8-7x<1
Subtract 7x from both sides.
-3x-8<1
Combine 4x and -7x to get -3x.
-3x<1+8
Add 8 to both sides.
-3x<9
Add 1 and 8 to get 9.
x>\frac{9}{-3}
Divide both sides by -3. Since -3 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
x>-3
