Question

I'm studying for a test and the question is....
5w+6greater than or equal to 16
the solution is w

Answer 1

no, the solution is not w. Maybe you are supposed to solve for w.
the words clearly mean, in math symbols:

5w + 6 >= 16
5w > 10
w > 2

So, if w is anything greater than 2, it will satisfy the given condition

Answer 2

ooh thanks that makes sense
