For the equation


58x+170>42x+320

A word problem could be the following.

Suppose we have a coin whose value we do not know and let us call the value of this coin x. All we know that 58 of these coins plus $170 is greater than 42 of these coins plus $320. This information, when converted into a word problem, gives the above inequality.
