Question

10 more than a number is greater than 50

Answer 1

`\text{10 more than a number is greater than 50}`


`\text{Let the number be represented by the variable x}`


`x+10\ \textgreater \ 50`
`\text{Isolate variable x}`


`x=50-10`
`\text{Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation}`


`x=40`
`\text{Solution}`

Answer 2

10 more than (+ 10) a number (x) is greater than (>) 50

x > 40
