To solve the inequality 2(x - 3) > 2x - 2, follow these steps:

1. Distribute the 2 to terms inside the parentheses:
2x - 6 > 2x - 2

2. Simplify by canceling out like terms on both sides of the equation:
-6 > -2

3. Since the inequality is true for all values of x, this means there are no solution restrictions. Therefore, the solution to the inequality is all real numbers.

Apologies for the mistake. Let's go through the steps again:

1. Distribute the 2 to terms inside the parentheses:
2x - 6 > 2x - 2

2. Simplify by canceling out like terms on both sides of the equation:
2x - 6 > 2x - 2

3. Now, we can cancel out the common terms "2x" on both sides of the inequality:
-6 > -2

4. Since -6 is not greater than -2, the inequality is not true for any value of x. Therefore, there are no solutions to this inequality.
