Question

Solve 4 + x > 6. Graph the Solution

Answer 1

x>10

Explanation:

To solve this problem, switch sides and then subtract 4 from both sides.

x+4>6

x+4-4>6-4

6-4=6+4=10

x>10, which is our answer.

Answer 2

x > 10

Explanation:

4 + x > 6 subtract 4 from both sides

4 - 4 + x > 6 + 4

x > 10
