Answer 1

A

Explanation:

Consider the smaller than sign as smaller or equal to sign as I couldn,t type the sign

-4(x+3)<-2-2x

Expand the bracket

-4x-12<-2-2x

Add 2x to both sides

-2x-12<-2

Add 12 to both sides

-2x<10

add 2x to both sides

0<10+2x

minus 10 on both sides

-10<2x

SImplify

-5<x

X is larger or equal to -5 which means the option A
