Answer

$(-\infty,-16)$

Work Step by Step

$12x+14\lt11x-2$ Solve for x. Subtract 11x from both sides then subtract 14 from both sides. $12x+14-11x\lt11x-2-11x$ $x+14\lt-2$ $x+14-14\lt-2-14$ $x\lt-16$ Which is written in interval notation as $(-\infty,-16)$ where ) indicates that the solution set for x approaches but does not include -16.
