#x > c-b#

Explanation:

Remember that you can subtract the same amount from both sides of an inequality without effecting the validity or direction of the inequality..

Given
#color(white)("XXX")x+b < c#
we can subtract #color(blue)b# from both sides to get
#color(white)("XXX")x+b color(blue)(-b) < c color(blue)(-b)#
which simplifies as
#color(white)("XXX")x < c -b#
