x>0

As long as x is positive, the statement 5x>2x is true.
Answered by Damon
what if x were negative ? Try x = -1
Answered by drwls
The inequality is not valid for any negative number x.

If you require a derivation, subtract 2x from both sides, leaving 3x>0. This is a valid operation for inequalities, and does not change the direction of the > sign.

Then divide both sidss by +3. This operation does not change the direction of the > sign either.
