Answer:

-16 > n or n < -16

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can write the inequality and distribute.

-6n-12 > 3(-n+12)

-6n-12 > -3n+36

Get rid of a variable first (it makes solving a lot easier). We can add 6n to both sides.

-6n-12 > -3n+36

+6n          +6n

-12 > 3n+36

Now, we can subtract 36 on both sides.

-12 > 3n+36

-36         -36

-48 > 3n

Divide by 3 on both sides.

-48 > 3n

/3       /3

-16 > n or (if it's easier) n < -16

Hope this helps!! Have a wonderful day C:
