Answer

$x\gt3$

Work Step by Step

We are given that $2(7x-1)-5x\gt-(-7x)+4$ We can solve for x by simplifying both sides using the distributive property. $14x-2-5x\gt7x+4$ We then combine like terms. $9x-2\gt7x+4$ Subtract 7x from both sides. $2x-2\gt4$ Add 2 to both sides. $2x\gt6$ Divide both sides by 2. $x\gt3$
