Question

The inequality 2x+1>15 will be true when1. x=72. x=03. x=104. x=5

Answer 1

From the problem, the given inequality is :

`2x+1>15`

Solving for x :

`\begin{gathered} 2x+1>15 \\ 2x>15-1 \\ 2x>14 \\ x>(14)/(2) \\ x>7 \end{gathered}`

The value of x must be greater than 7.

From the options, the only number that is greater than 7 is x = 10

The answer is 3. x = 10
