The solution is

Answer 1

x > -1

Explanation:

To solve, we must isolate the variable, x

8+8(x + 4) >32

Distribute the 8

8+ 8*x +8*4

8+8x+ 32 >32

Combine like terms

8+32 +8x >32

40 + 8x >32

Subtract 40 from both sides

8x > -8

Divide both sides by 8

x > -1

Answer 2

Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.

Inequality Form: x > - 1
