Question

Which situation can be represented by 80x > 150 + 50x?

Answer 1

Answer:

All numbers greater than 5, i.e., $x>5$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given inequality is  

$80x>150+50x$

Isolate variable terms on one side to find the solution.

Subtract  50x from both sides.

$80x-50x>150+50x-50x$

$30x>150$

Divide both sides by 30.

$\dfrac{30x}{30}>\dfrac{150}{30}$

$x>5$

It means, all the numbers which are greater than 5, are the solutions of the given inequality and 5 is not included in the solution set.
