Answer:


x is greater than 4.

Explanation:

Given:

5x+2 is greater than 3x+10.

Now, to find
x is greater than.


5x+2> 3x+10

Subtracting both sides by 2 we get:


5x>3x+8

Subtracting both sides by 3
x we get:


2x> 8

Dividing both sides by 2 we get:


x>4.

Therefore,
x is greater than 4.

The value of x is always grater than 4.

Therefore x = (4,∞)

Explanation:

Given

5x+ 2 >3x+10

⇔5x - 3x >10-2

⇔2x > 8

⇔x > 4

The value of x is always grater than 4.

Therefore x = (4,∞)
