Answer 1

Answer:

x>3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with the inequation 3(8-4x) < 6(x - 5)

Dividing both sides in the above in equation by 3 we get

(8-4x)<2(x-5)

Distributing 2 over (x-5)

(8-4x)<2x-10

8-4x<2x-10

adding 10 and 4x on both hand sides we get

8+10<2x+4x

18<6x

Dividing both sides by 6 we get

3<x

Hence the solution to the given in equation is x>3
