Answer:

x > -5

Explanation:

Key Concept

When solving inequalities, focus on isolating the variable.


\dotfill

Our inequality is:


\sf{5-3x < 20}

Subtract 5 from both sides:


\sf{-3x < 15}

Divide both sides by -3, and reverse the inequality sign:


\sf{x > -5}

Therefore, x > -5.

Answer:

x > - 5

Explanation:

5 - 3x < 20 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

- 3x < 15

divide both sides by - 3 , reversing the symbol as a result of dividing by a negative quantity.

x > - 5
