Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

8x - 6 > 12 + 2x

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. Subtract 2x on both sides:                    6x - 6 > 12
  2. Add 6 to both sides:                              6x > 18
  3. Divide 6 on both sides:                          x > 3

Here we see that any value x greater than 3 would work as a solution to the inequality.

Out of the answer choices, 5 is the only number greater than 3.
