3x + 3 - x -7 is greater than 6.

2x - 4 is greater than 6.

2x is greater than 10.

x is greater than 5.

Hence, the answer is (A).

Answer:

A. x > 5

Explanation:

We have been given the inequality;

3x + 3 − x + (−7) > 6

The first step is to collect the like terms;

3x-x+3-7>6

2x-4>6

2x>6+4

2x>10

x>5
