How do you solve #x+3>10#?

Answer 1

Savannah Anderson

#x > 7#

Things you can do with an inequality which maintain the inequality (and its orientation):

In this case: we are given #x+3 > 10# so we can subtract #3# from both sides to get #color(white)("XXX")x > 7#

To solve the inequality ( x + 3 > 10 ), you need to isolate ( x ) on one side of the inequality sign. Start by subtracting 3 from both sides:

( x + 3 - 3 > 10 - 3 )

( x > 7 )

So, the solution to the inequality is ( x > 7 ).
