Answer:

⇒ Add 8x to both sides of the inequality

⇒ x>1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you subtract by 5 from both sides of equation.

5-8x-5<2x+3-5

Solve.

-8x<2x-2

Then subtract by 2x from both sides of equation.

-8x-2x<2x-2-2x

Solve.

-10x<-2

Multiply by -1 from both sides of equation.

(-10x)(-1)>(-2)(-1)

Solve.

10x>2

Divide by 10 from both sides of equation.

10x/10>2/10

Solve to find the answer.

2/10=10/2=5 2/2=1=1/5

x>1/5 is final answer.

Hope this helps!
