Answer:

The solution to the inequality is:

[tex]x<5[/tex]

The number line solution graph is also attached below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the inequality

[tex]2(x-3)-8< -4[/tex]

Add 8 to both sides

[tex]2\left(x-3\right)-8+8<-4+8[/tex]

[tex]2\left(x-3\right)<4[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]\frac{2\left(x-3\right)}{2}<\frac{4}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x-3<2[/tex]

Add 3 to both sides

[tex]x-3+3<2+3[/tex]

[tex]x<5[/tex]

Thus, the solution to the inequality is:

[tex]x<5[/tex]

The number line solution graph is also attached below.
