x > 3

Solution:

The given inequality is 2x – 1 > x + 2.

To simplify the inequality 2x – 1 > x + 2.

2x – 1 > x + 2

Subtract x on both sides of the expression.

⇒ 2x – 1 – x > x + 2 – x

⇒ 2x – x – 1 > x – x + 2

⇒ x – 1 > 2

Add 1 on both sides of the expression.

⇒ x – 1 + 1 > 2 + 1

x > 3

The graph of the solution x > 3 is attached below.
