Sue has more than 5 cookies inequality​

Hello there! An inequality modeling this could be x > 5.

When setting up this equation, we can use x to model the number of cookies that Sue has.

Remember that these are the symbols we use to represent inequalities:

< - greater than

> - less than

≤ - greater than or equal to

≥ - less than or equal to

Since the number of cookies Sue has is greater than 5 (but not equal to), we use the symbol.

We can represent her having x amount of cookies, which is more than 5, like this: x > 5,

I hope this helps and have a great day! :)
