Solving inequality

From the question, we are to solve the inequality

The given inequality is

–3(2x – 5) < 5(2 – x)

First, clear the brackets

–6x + 15 < 10 – 5x

NOTE: This is one of the correct representations of the inequality

Collect like terms

-6x + 5x < 10 - 15

-x < -5

Divide both sides by -1 and flip the sign

x > 5

Representing this on a number line, we get a number line with an open circle at 5 and a bold line that starts at 5 and is pointing to the right.

Hence, the correct representations of the given inequality are

–6x + 15 < 10 – 5x

and

A number line with an open circle at 5 and a bold line that starts at 5 and is pointing to the right. The correct options are the third and fourth options
