Documenting Algorithmic Steps for Order Thresholds

As a logistics trainee, you are auditing the backend calculations of a new inventory management system. The system evaluates the inequality 8p+3(p12)>7p28{}8p + 3(p - 12) > 7p - 28 to calculate pp, the valid threshold for bulk orders. To satisfy compliance audit requirements, you must document the standard mathematical procedure used to solve this. Write a short explanation recalling the exact sequence of algebraic steps required to isolate pp and arrive at the final interval notation (2, infty). In your explanation, specifically state the mathematical rule that dictates why the inequality symbol remains exactly the same during the final division step.
