Solve for xx and graph the solution on the number line below.

Question

80, is less than, 10, x
80<
10x

Answer 1

To solve for x, we need to divide both sides of the inequality by 10:

80 < 10x
80/10 < x
8 < x

So the solution for x is x > 8.

Here is the graph of the solution on the number line:

<------------------o====>
-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

The open circle at 8 indicates that x is greater than 8.
