Ox>6
O.x < 6
Ox<-6
Ox>-6

Answer 1

Answer is x < -6
Third option

Step by step

Given

3x -2 > 5x + 10

Subtract 3x from both sides to combine x

3x -3x -2 > 5x -3x + 10
Simplify

-2 > 2x + 10
Subtract 10 from both sides to combine constants

-2 -10 > 2x + 10 -10
Simplify

-12 > 2x

Divide both sides by 2 to solve for x

-12/2 > 2/2 x

-6 > x

Or

x < -6
