Question

Solve for x: 3x-2>5x+10

Answer 1

the anwser is x less than -6

Answer 2

Hello! And thank you for your question!

First subtract 3x from both sides:

5x + 10 - 3x > -2

Then simplify 5x + 10 -3x:

-2 > 2x + 10

Subtract 10 from both sides:

2x < -2 - 10

Simplify -2 - 10

-12 > 2x

Then divide both sides by 2:

-12 over 2 > x

After that simplify 12/2 to 6

x < -6

Final Answer:

x < -6
