1. **State the problem:** Solve the compound inequality $$4 - 3x > x + 12 < \frac{3x + 29}{2}$$ and find the integral values of $x$ that satisfy it.
2. **Rewrite the compound inequality:** The inequality means both
$$4 - 3x > x + 12$$
and
$$x + 12 < \frac{3x + 29}{2}$$
must hold true simultaneously.
3. **Solve the first inequality:**
$$4 - 3x > x + 12$$
Subtract $x$ from both sides:
$$4 - 4x > 12$$
Subtract 4 from both sides:
$$-4x > 8$$
Divide both sides by $-4$ (remember to reverse inequality sign when dividing by negative):
$$x < -2$$
4. **Solve the second inequality:**
$$x + 12 < \frac{3x + 29}{2}$$
Multiply both sides by 2 to clear denominator:
$$2x + 24 < 3x + 29$$
Subtract $2x$ from both sides:
$$24 < x + 29$$
Subtract 29 from both sides:
$$-5 < x$$
or equivalently
$$x > -5$$
5. **Combine the two results:**
$$x < -2$$ and $$x > -5$$
So the solution set is
$$-5 < x < -2$$
6. **Find integral values:** The integers strictly between $-5$ and $-2$ are
$$-4, -3$$
**Final answer:** The integral values of $x$ satisfying the inequality are $-4$ and $-3$.
