Question

Solve the equation for v.

0.5v + 0.03 > 2.83

v > 1.3
v < 1.3
v > 5.6
v < 5.6

Answer 1

`\huge{ \boxed{v > 5.6}}`

Explanation:

`0.5v + 0.03 >2.8`

In order to solve this inequality, first subtract 0.03 from both sides of the inequality to isolate 0.5v

`0.5v + 0.03 - 0.03 > 2.83 - 0.03 \\ 0.5v > 2.8`

Next divide both sides by 0.5

`(0.5v)/(0.5) > (2.8)/(0.5) \\ v > 5.6`

We have the final answer as

`\bold{v > 5.6}`
