Question

What is the solution if the inequality shown below? a-1>11​

Answer 1

`\huge \boxed{a>12}`

Explanation:

Add by 1 from both sides.

`\displaystyle a-1+1>11+1`

Simplify, to find the answer.

`\displaystyle 11+1=12`

`\displaystyle a>12`, which is our answer.

Answer 2

a > 12

Explanation:

Isolate the variable a. Treat the > sign like the = sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other. Add 1 to both sides:

a - 1 (+1) > 11 (+1)

a > 11 + 1

a > 12

a > 12 is your answer.
