Answer:

Subtract 47 from both sides and you will get -4x<7-47. Then simplify, -4x<-40. Divide and you will get 10.

Answer:
x>10

So, from 11 on, all values make this inequality true.

Explanation:


47-4x<7

Subtract 47


-4x<7-47\\-4x<-40

Divide by -4 (Note: When multiplying or dividing by negative numbers, the inequality sign flips.)


x>(-40)/(-4)\\ x>10
