Answer:

x = infinite amount of solutions

Explanation:

Step 1: Write out inequality

5 + 2x < 2x + 6

Step 2: Solve

5 < 6

Since we can see that 6 is indeed bigger than 5, it makes the inequality true. If you plug in any number x, it will still be true. Therefore, we have an infinite amount of solutions,
