a.
3 * (2x + 1) > 5 - 2x
simplify to get:
6x + 3 > 5 - 2x
add 2x to both sides and subtract 3 from both sides to get:
8x > 2/8 which becomes x > .25.

b.
2x^2 - 7x + 3 > 0
set it equal to 0 to get:
2x^2 - 7x + 3 = 0
factor to get:
(2x-1) * (x-3) = 0
zero points are x = .5 and x = 3
2x^2 - 7x + 3 is less than zero between x = .5 and x = 3.
it is greater than zero when x is less than .5 and x is greater than 3.


to satisfy both inequalities, you hneed to have both x > .25 and x < .5 and x > 3.

your solution should be .25 < x < .5 or x > 3.

that can be seen in the following graph using desmos.com/calculator.



the area on the graph that is not shaded is your region of feasibility.

let me know if you have any questions.

In your post, the input equations are written INCORRECTLY.

It is the same as, when driving a car, you miss the break pedal with the gas.
