Answer:

x > 8

Explanation:

12 (x - 3) > 60

One solves an inequality exactly like how one solves an equation, with inverse operations. The only difference is that when one multipies or divides by a negative number, one must flip the inequality sign, this rule is not applicable in this situation

12 ( x - 3 ) > 60

Inverse operations,

12 ( x - 3 ) > 60

/12 /12

x - 3 > 5

+3 +3

x > 8
