Question

Solve this in linear inequalities in one variable and show the solution set on number line. 1)*/3>5

Answer 1

`x > 15`

Explanation:

Given

`(x)/(3) > 5`

Solving (a): Solve

`(x)/(3) > 5`

Multiply both sides by 3

`3 * (x)/(3) > 5 * 3`

`x > 5 * 3`

`x > 15`

Solving (b): Number line

The number line points towards the right, this means greater than (>)

The open circle on 15 is used for only < and >. So the open circle indicates >.
