Steps:
I will solve your system by substitution.
(You can also solve this system by elimination.)

Answer:
x>5
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the inequality.
4x−15>−2x+15
Step 2: Add 2x to both sides.
4x−15+2x>−2x+15+2x
6x−15>15
Step 3: Add 15 to both sides.
6x−15+15>15+15
6x>30
Step 4: Divide both sides by 6.

Answer: 20% increase</h3>
======================================================
Explanation:
A = old value = 110
B = new value = 132
C = percent change
C = 100*(B-A)/A
C = 100*(132-110)/110
C = 20%
The positive C value means we have a percent increase, which corresponds to the fact that A = 110 increases to B = 132.
The B-A = 132-110 = 22 portion up top indicates that the increase is 22 pounds, which when divided over 110, gets us 22/110 = 0.20 = 20%
---------------
Checking the answer:
20% of 110 = 0.20*110 = 22
She's able to lift 22 extra pounds on top of the 110 pounds she can handle previously, so she can now lift 110+22 = 132 pounds. The answer is confirmed.
