6x+8-5x+45>8\left(2x-6\right)-9\left(4x-7\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply -5 by x-9.
x+8+45>8\left(2x-6\right)-9\left(4x-7\right)
Combine 6x and -5x to get x.
x+53>8\left(2x-6\right)-9\left(4x-7\right)
Add 8 and 45 to get 53.
x+53>16x-48-9\left(4x-7\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 8 by 2x-6.
x+53>16x-48-36x+63
Use the distributive property to multiply -9 by 4x-7.
x+53>-20x-48+63
Combine 16x and -36x to get -20x.
x+53>-20x+15
Add -48 and 63 to get 15.
x+53+20x>15
Add 20x to both sides.
21x+53>15
Combine x and 20x to get 21x.
21x>15-53
Subtract 53 from both sides.
21x>-38
Subtract 53 from 15 to get -38.
x>-\frac{38}{21}
Divide both sides by 21. Since 21 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
