-2(s + 7) > 4s + 8      expand L side

-2s-14 > 4x+8            add 2s and 12 to both sides of the equation

0 > 6x+ 22                 subtract 22 from both sides

-22 > 6x                     divide both sides by 6

-22/6 >x                     or...re-wrote as

 

x< - 22/6                      (-inf, - 22/6)
