Answer:

x > 7/3

Explanation:

5(3x - 2) > 3(4x - 1)

First, use the distributive property on both sides.

15x - 10 > 12x - 3

Subtract 12x from both sides.

15x - 12x - 10 > 12x - 12x - 3

3x - 10 > -3

Add 10 to both sides.

3x - 10 + 10 > - 3 + 10

3x > 7

Divide both sides by 3.

3x/3 > 7/3

x > 7/3
