{{{2+5x>2x-13}}} Start with the given inequality.



{{{5x>2x-13-2}}} Subtract {{{2}}} from both sides.



{{{5x-2x>-13-2}}} Subtract {{{2x}}} from both sides.



{{{3x>-13-2}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{3x>-15}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x>(-15)/(3)}}} Divide both sides by {{{3}}} to isolate {{{x}}}. 



{{{x>-5}}} Reduce.
