Question
20+6 <5 (x-3)

1 answer

To find a solution to the inequality 20 + 6 < 5(x-3), we first simplify the left side of the inequality:

20 + 6 = 26

Now, we can rewrite the inequality as:

26 < 5(x-3)

Next, we can distribute the 5 on the right side:

26 < 5x - 15

Add 15 to both sides:

26 + 15 < 5x

41 < 5x

Divide both sides by 5 to isolate x:

41/5 < x

Therefore, the solution to the inequality 20 + 6 < 5(x-3) is x > 41/5 or x > 8.2.
