Answer:

P>-6/5

Explanation:

2(P+1)+3(P+2)>2

Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by P+1

2P+2+3(P+2)>2

Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by P+2

2P+2+3P+6>2

Combine 2P and 3P to get 5P

5P+2+6>2

Add 2 and 6 to get 8

5P+8>2

Subtract 8 from both sides

5P>2−8

Subtract 8 from 2 to get −6.

5P>−6

Divide both sides by 5. Since 5 is positive

P>−6/5
