Solve the inequality

2x – 5 > 7

a. x> 6

b. x > 12

c. x < 8

d. x < 12

Your answer is A. hope that helped

You would want to separate the single number and the variable. Subtract 5 from the one side and add it to the 7 making the expression 2x > 12. The next step is to divide both sides by the coefficient, meaning 2, and you would end with the expression x > 6 which is A. Hope this explanation helps you in the future!
