3 (x + 6) - 2 (x - 4) > 5 (x + 2)

4 >x

Step-by-step explanation:

3 (x + 6) - 2 (x - 4) > 5 (x + 2)

Distribute

3x+18 - 2x+8 > 5x+10

Combine like terms

x + 26 > 5x+10

Subtract x from each side

x+26-x > 5x-x+10

26 > 4x+10

Subtract 10 from each side

26-10 >4x+10-10

16 >4x

Divide each side by 4

16/4 >4x/4

4 >x
