Thank you! If its multiple choice would I chose 12 cause that's the answer or thirteen because the inequality says x is greater than 12.

After solving, you should get x > 12, as you stated. Since the question says greater than and does NOT say greater than or equal to, 12 is not included. Therefore, the answer would not be 12.
