5\left(x+5\right)<15-3\left(3-2x\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 15, the least common multiple of 3,5. Since 15 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
5x+25<15-3\left(3-2x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 5 by x+5.
5x+25<15-9+6x
Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by 3-2x.
5x+25<6+6x
Subtract 9 from 15 to get 6.
5x+25-6x<6
Subtract 6x from both sides.
-x+25<6
Combine 5x and -6x to get -x.
-x<6-25
Subtract 25 from both sides.
-x<-19
Subtract 25 from 6 to get -19.
x>\frac{-19}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1. Since -1 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
x>19
Fraction \frac{-19}{-1} can be simplified to 19 by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
