Well, first, you need to know what you want to 'do' to it.
You want to find the description of what 'x' has to be in order to
make that inequality a true statement. Here's one way to do it:
4/5 x > 14
Multiply each side by 5 : 4 x > 70
Divide each side by 4 : x > 17.5 .
That's it. As long as 'x' is more than 17.5 ,
the original inequality is true.
