Answer:

7.75

Explanation:

You group like terms from the inequality above ie by making the x value stands alone and you can only do this by sending 14 to the left side of the inequality and 4x to the right side. This becomes 45-14 < 4x and that gives you 31 < 4x. Then you divide both side by the number attached to the variable 'x' ie 4. So 31/4 < 4x/4 making x > 31/4 which is 7.75
