Answer:

x>-2

Explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the inequality 7+7(x+4)>21, and we want to solve it

Solving an inequality is a lot like solving an equation; we want to isolate x on one side by itself.

So to start, we'll preform the distributive property on 7(x+4) (multiply x by 7, then multiply 4 by 7 and add those two together).

7+7x+28>21

Now combine like terms.

7x+35>21

Subtract 35 from both sides

7x>-14

Divide both sides by 7

x>-2

Hope this helps!
