What you want to do is get x by it self so to do that you must do two things: First you must minus 4 from both sides -- so now you have -2x greater than 8. Second you must divide by -2 however if you multiply or divide by a negative number in a greater than or less than equation then you must flip the sign -- thus you end up with x is LESS THAN -4. -2x + 4 > 12

-2x + 4 - 4 > 12 - 4

-2x > 8

-2x/-2 < 8/-2

x < -4
