−5(4x 6)<−18x + 6 + 4x (distributing the terms removing parenthesis)

−20x−30<−18x + 6 + 4x (adding similar terms)

−20x−30<−14x + 6 (adding both sides by +14x) 

−6x−30<6 (adding both sides by 30)

−6x < 36 ( dividing both sides by -6; multiplying or dividing by a negative
term change the symbol) 

x>−6 (displaying the result)
