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.
