1/3
*Tip: Just divide each side by the same number (in this case, divide each side by 2)
Hope I helped! <3
X+20+10x=20+9x
adding like terms
x(10+1)+20=20+9x
11x+20=9x+20
subtracting 9x from both sides
2x+20=20
subtracting 20 from both sides
2x=0
dividing by two for both sides
x=0

Answer: No it is <u>not</u> a solution
Why not? Because it doesn't make the first inequality true. Replace x with 1 and y with 2
y > 2x
y > 2*1 ... replaced x with 1
2 > 2*1 .... replaced y with 2
2 > 2 .... which is a false inequality statement since 2 is not larger than itself
