What value of x is in the solution set of 3(x – 4) > 5x + 2? Choices
-10
-5
5
10

We have to simplify and get the value of x from this inequality given:

Given inequality,

Now let's simplify by using distributive property,

We need to find x, so let's isolate x to the letter side of the inequality for calculation at ease.

Now, dividing -2 from both sides.

Note : As we are dividing a negative number from both sides, the sign of the inequality will be reversed.

Now subtracting -7 from both sides,

Or, Interval of the equal
