x< 3

Explanation:

STEP ONE: Add 4 to each side. You want to make sure to keep each variable to their own separate side!

13x - 4 < 12x - 1

13x < 12x + 3

STEP TWO: Subtract 12 from each side. Remember! You want each variable to be on their own separate sides! In this case, the x variable is on the left side and the numbers are on the right side.

13x < 12x + 3

x< 3
