Given : -2(5x+1) > 48

To solve for x  we need to get x alone

Lets start with removing parenthesis from left hand side

-10x -2 > 48

Now add 2 on both sides

-10x > 50

Divide by -10 from both sides. When we divide by negative number then flip the inequality sign, so > becomes <

x < -5

Answer is x< -5
