Answer:

10 > -6x

Explanation:

1/2(-2 x -10) > 3(4 - 6)

do the work in the parentheses:

1/2(20) > 3(-2)

multiply (you multiply when a number is next to parentheses fyi):

1/2 x 20 = 10, 3 x -2 = -6

Answer:

x>1

Explanation:


(1)/(2) × (-2x - 10) > 3(4-6x)

-2x - 10 > 6(4-6x)

-2x - 10 > 24 - 36x

-2x + 36x > 24 + 10

34x > 34

x>1
