Answer:

The solution is x > 0

1 is a particular solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the inequality:

5x - (x + 2) > -5(1 + x) + 3

This becomes

5x - x - 2 > -5 - 5x + 3

4x - 2 > -5x - 2

4x + 5x > -2 + 2

9x > 0

x > 0

All numbers greater than 0 are solutions

1, for instance, is a solution because it satisfies the inequality
