Question

5x + 10 > 35
How do you work this out?

Answer 1

Explanation:

`5x + 10 > 35 \\ \: 5x > 35 - 10 \\ 5x > 25 \\ x > 5`

Answer 2

`x > 5`

Step-by -step explanation:

Solving inequalities is similar to solving equations.

`5x + 10 > 35`

Subtract 10 from both sides.

`5x > 25`

Divide by 5 from both sides to isolate the x.

`x > 5`
