Answer:

y>5-x

Explanation:

To solve this problem we need start by grouping terms in the same side of inequality.

Lets begging by grouping 'y' terms on the left side of inequality sign, to do this, subtract 3y to both sides:

2x+5y-3y>3y-3y+10

2x+2y>10

Now lets subtract 2x to both sides of inequality.

2x-2x+2y>10-2x

2y>10-2x

Now isolate variable x by dividing the inequaiity by 2.

y>5-x

That is the solution
