Lets try and write it down mathematically:
-4x-7 > 1
Lets put the variables on one side and the numbers on the other side. Every variable or number that will change sides, will have their sign changed from a + into a - and vice versa.
-4x > 1+7
-4x > 8
Divide both sides with -4.
-4x/-4 > 8/-4
Since we are dividing both sides with a negative number, the sign will change from > into <.
x < -2
