Given

The inequality is given


\begin{gathered} 5x-3>12 \\ -6x\ge-36 \end{gathered}Step-by-step explanation

Simplify the inequalities in terms of x.


\begin{gathered} 5x-3>12 \\ 5x>12+3 \\ 5x\gt15 \\ x\gt3 \end{gathered}
(3,\infty)


\begin{gathered} -6x\ge-36 \\ x\leq(36)/(6) \\ x\leq6 \end{gathered}


(-\infty,6\rbrack

The interval notation for the compound inequality is
