Alvaro Price · Answer 1

Don't really know what your options are, but x/3>2x-5.

Girl · Answer 2

First option x less than 3

Step-by-step explanation:

x/3 MORE than 2x-5

Multiply everything by 3

x MORE than 6x-15

subtract 6x in both sides

-5x MORE than - 15

Divide both sides by - 5 (you need to flip sign)

x LESS than 3
