    12s - 20 < 50 - 3s - 25

    12s - 20 < 50 - 3s - 25

    +3s + 3s

    15s - 20 < 50 - 25

    + 20 + 20

    15s < 70 - 25

    15s < 45

    : 15 : 15

    s < 3

    The value of s is less than or equal to 3. So s can be 3, 2, 1, 0, and negative numbers.

    s = 3 ⇒ 12 (3) - 20 < 50 - 3 (3) - 25; 36 - 20 < 50 - 9 - 25; 16 < 16

    s = 2 ⇒ 12 (2) - 20 < 50 - 3 (2) - 25; 24 - 20 < 50 - 6 - 25; 4 < 19
