Question

2.40x+23.40>318.60 need this for extra credit

Answer 1

x>123

Explanation:

To solve this you first need to get the x alone to figure out what number it has to be. We do this by subtracting 23.40 from each side:

2.40x+23.40>318.60 turns into

2.40x>295.20

Now we have to divide both sides by 2.40 to get x alone and we get

x>123

So we know that x must be greater than 123

(If you set x=123 you will get 0, so x must be greater than 123)

Answer 2

x>123

Explanation:

subtract 23.40 from both sides

2.40x>295.20

divide both sides by 2.40

x>123
