Answer:


5 > x

Explanation:


20x > 8(4x - 5) - 20 \\ 20x > 32x - 40 - 20 \\ \\ 20x > 32x - 60 \\ -32x \: - 32x \\ \\ -12x > -60 \\ \\ x < 5

* Whenever you multiply\divide by a negative, you reverse the inequality symbol.

The above answer is written in reverse, which is the exact same result.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
