Given exprression is 12x>3(5x-2)-15.

Opening the brackets implies,


\begin{gathered} 12x>15x-6-15 \\ 12x>15x-21 \end{gathered}

Reaaranging the expression implies,


\begin{gathered} 21>3x \\ x<7 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the solution is x<7.

Expressit in real line implies,

Solve the inequality for x. Show each step of the solution.12x > 3(5x-2) - 15-example-1
