Let's analyze the inequality step by step.
The inequality provided is:
\[
\frac{-4x}{-4} < \frac{32}{-4}
\]
First, simplifying both sides:
1. **For the left side**: \(\frac{-4x}{-4} = x\)
2. **For the right side**: \(\frac{32}{-4} = -8\)
So we rewrite the inequality as:
\[
x < -8
\]
This means that \(x\) is less than \(-8\).
However, you wrote the wrong final expression as \(x < -8 = x < -8\). The mistake here implies that we are leaving the inequality sign in the wrong direction.
The correct interpretation is just as we simplified it above:
The correct solution to the inequality \(-4x < 32\) (which is what we started with) after division by \(-4\) should have the inequality sign flipped (since we are dividing by a negative number).
So, indeed, when dividing both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality sign.
Thus, the corrected inequality after solving should have been:
\[
x > -8
\]
**Correct Solution**:
The correctly solved inequality is:
\[
x > -8
\]
