Distribute the -4 and the 2, then move all "x" terms to the left. Move all constants to the right. Simplify, and solve for x.

5x - 24 - 8x < 2 - 2x
5x - 24 - 8x + 2x < 2
5x - 8x + 2x < 2 + 24
-x < 26
x > -26

5x - 24 -8x < 2 - 2x
So
-3x < 26 - 2x

-x < 26

So x > -26

5 x - 24 - 8 x < 2 - 2 x

- 26 < x

x > - 26

5x - 4(6 + 2x) < 2(1 - x)

5x - 4(6) - 4(2x) < 2(1) - 2(x)

5x - 24 - 8x < 2 - 2x

5x - 8x + 2x < 2 + 24

-x < 26

x > 26/(-1)

x > -26

First, expand as such:

5x - 4(6+2x) < 2(1-x)
5x - 24 - 8x < 2 - 2x
-3x -24 < 2-2x

Now, add 2x to both sides to get:

2x - 3x - 24 < 2 - 2x + 2x
-x - 24 < 2

now, add 24 to both sides to get:

-x - 24 + 24 < 2 + 24
-x < 26

Now, multiply through by -1 to change the sign of the x variable:

x > -26
