Answer: x>1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, you solve it as if it had an equal sign.

-2(8x-4)<2x+5                        [distribute -2]

-16x+8<2x+5                           [combine like terms by adding and subtracting on both sides]

3<18x                                      [divide both sides by 18]

x>1/6
