Answer:
x>4.5
Explanation:
6(x-2)>15
We do this is as if it were an equation:
6(x-2)>15
Expand the brackets:
6x-12>15
Add 12 to both sides:
6x-12+12>15+12
Simplify:
6x>37
Now we divide both sides by 6:
6x÷6>37÷6
x > 4.5
If we put 5 into the original equation as it is more than 4.5, we get:
6(5-2)>15
We can simplify the brackets or expand first:
