5x - 3 > 12x + 1
5x-12x > 1+3 (grouping like terms changing sign while changing side)
-7x > 4
Dividing by (-7) and since division by a negative quantity alters the inequality,so greater than becomes less than)
x < 4/(-7)
That is x < (-4/7)

First step. get both X's on one side
5x - 3 > 12x + 1
-5x -5x
-----------------------
-3 > 7x + 1
Now you want to get the 7x alone.
-3 > 7x + 1
-1 - 1
---------------
-4 > 7x
Then you want to get X by its self so divide by 7
-4 > 7x
/ 7 > /7
Your answer = -4/7 is greater than (>) x
