Step 2: To isolate -x, subtract 8 from both sides. This gives you -x > 3 - 8.
Step 3: Simplify the right side. 3 - 8 equals -5, so now you have -x > -5.
Step 4: To solve for x, multiply both sides of the inequality by -1. Remember, when you multiply or divide by a negative number, you must flip the inequality sign.
Step 5: Flipping the inequality gives you x < 5.
