Question

Solve the inequality for x:
4x - 28 > 16

Answer 1

We have:

4x - 28 > 16

• Add 28 to both sides:

`4x-28+28>16+28`

• Simplify:

4x > 44

• Divide both sides by 4:

`(4x)/(4)>(44)/(4)`

• Simplify:

`\boxed{x>11}`

`\begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:x>11\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:\left(11,\:\infty \:\right)\end{bmatrix}`
