Question

What is the answer X/7-3>8

Answer 1

Answer:

x > 77

Step-by-step explanation:

According to order of operations rules, we must carry out division before addition or subtraction.  In this case we wish to isolate x and are permitted to simplify the inequality by combining the "like terms" 3 and 8, as follows:

X/7-3>8

     +3 +3

--------------

x/7 > 11

The easiest way in which to solve for x is to multiply both sides of this inequality by 7:

7(x/7) > 7(11), or

x > 77

All numbers greater than 77 are part of the solution set.
