Answer:

As per the statement:

We have an inequality:
65 > 15x

Divide both sides by 15 we get;


(65)/(15) > x

or


x < (13)/(3)

The solution set for this inequality is:
(-\infty , (13)/(3))

Take any three values of x to make the given inequality.

Put x = 1


65 > 15(1) = 15


65 > 15 True.

Put x = 2


65 > 15(2)


65 > 30 True.

Put x = 3


65 > 15(3)


65 > 45 True.

Therefore, the values of x that would make this inequality
65 > 15x true are:

x = 1, 2 and 3
