Lets try and remove the brackets on our left side in order to work easier. Multiply 16 with the bracket.

96x+576 < -7+2

Put the numbers on the one side of the inequality and the variables on the other side. If we change sides, the signs will switch from a + into a -.

96x < 5-576

96x < -571

Divide both sides with 96.

96x/96 < -571/96

x < -5.94
