does anyone know this?

Inequality Form:  x < −1

Interval Notation:  (−∞, −1)

Step-by-step explanation:

3 (x + 3) −2 < 4

Simplify 3 (x + 3) − 2.

Apply the distributive property.

    3x + 3 ⋅ 3 − 2 < 4

Multiply 3 by 3.

    3x + 9 − 2 < 4

Subtract 2 from 9.

    3x + 7 < 4

Move all terms not containing x to the right side of the inequality.

Subtract 7 from both sides of the inequality.

    3x  < 4 − 7

Subtract 7 from 4.

    3x  < −3

Divide each term by 3 and simplify.

    x < −1

The result can be shown in multiple forms.
