What is 5x - (x-2) >2x-4 (x-8)

x > 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Equation at the end of step 1:

(4x + 2) - (2x - 4 • (x - 8)) > 0

Step 2:

Step 3:

Pulling out like terms:

3.1 Pull out like factors:

6x - 30 = 6 • (x - 5)

Equation at the end of step 3:

6 • (x - 5) > 0

Step 4:

4.1 Divide both sides by 6

Solve Basic Inequality:

4.2 Add 5 to both sides

x > 5
