Answer:

1. Simplify the inequality 5.1(3 + 2.2x) > -14.25 - 6(1.7x + 4):

15.3+11.22x>-14.25-10.2x-24 10;15.3+11.22x>-10.2x-38.75.

2. Separate terms with x and without x in different sides:

11.22x+10.2x>-38.75-15.3.

3. Add similar terms:

21.42x>-54.05.

4. Divide by 21.42:

x>-54.05/21.42

x>-2.5
