Answer:


r>6

Explanation:

So we have the inequality:


5(6+3r)+7>127

First, let's subtract 7 from both sides:


(5(6+3r)+7)-7>(127)-7

The left side cancels:


5(6+3r)>127-7

Subtract on the right:


5(6+3r)>120

Now, let's divide both sides by 5:


(5(6+3r))/(5)>(120)/(5)

The left side cancels. Divide on the right:


6+3r>24

Subtract 6 from both sides:


(6+3r)-6>(24)-6

The left side cancels. Subtract on the right:


3r>18

Divide both sides by 3:


(3r)/(3)>(18)/(3)

Divide:


r>6

So, our answer is all values greater than 6.

And we're done!
