Answer:

x < 2

Explanation:

Given

10x > 8(3x - 2) - 12 ← distribute parenthesis on right side

10x > 24x - 16 - 12, that is

10x > 24x - 28 ( subtract 24x from both sides )

- 14x > - 28

Divide both sides by - 14, reversing the inequality symbol as a result of dividing by a negative quantity.

x < 2
