ANSWER

[tex]x \: < \: - 8[/tex]

EXPLANATION

The given inequality is

[tex]3 - (2x - 5) \: < \: - 4(x + 2)[/tex]

Expand:

[tex]3 - 2x + 5 \: < \: - 4x - 8[/tex]

Group similar terms, to obtain:

[tex] - 2x + 4x\: < \: - 8 - 5 - 3[/tex]

Combine similar terms:

[tex]2x\: < \: - 16[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2 to get,

[tex]x \: < \: - 8[/tex]
