Example Question #70 : Equations / Inequalities

Solve the following inequality: -6+x-3>1

Possible Answers:

x<-8

x>10

x<2

x>-8

x<10

Correct answer:

x>10

Explanation:

In order to solve this inequality, we must add six and three on both sides of the inequality to isolate the x-variable.

-6+x-3 + (3+6)>1+ (3+6)

This will cancel out the terms and leave x by itself on the left side.

The answer is: x>10
