Question

What is the solution to the inequality?

s4+5>9


A. s > 4

B. s > 12

C. s > 16

D. s > 8

Answer 1

s = 1

Explanation:

`s4+5>9 \\ 4s + 5>9 \\`

Step-by-step solution

Linear inequalities with one unknown

1. Group all constants on the

right side of the inequality

4:8 + 5 > 9

Subtract 5 from both sides:

4s + 5 - 5 > 9 - 5

Simplify the arithmetic:

4.59 - 5

Simplify the arithmetic:

4.s>4

Divide both sides by 4:

`s > (4)/(4) \\ s = 1`
