Choice A is the correct answer. Remember to flip the inequality sign.

1. Divide by -3: $x < -4$
2. Flip the sign: When dividing by a negative, the inequality reverses.

💡 Strategic Tip: Always flip the inequality when multiplying or dividing by a negative number.

Choice B is incorrect because it forgot to flip the sign. Choice C is incorrect because it has the wrong value. Choice D is incorrect because it has both wrong direction and wrong value.
