1 answer

To solve the inequality \( x - 2.41 > 4.76 \), we can follow these steps:

  1. Add \( 2.41 \) to both sides of the inequality:

\[ x - 2.41 + 2.41 > 4.76 + 2.41 \]

Which simplifies to:

\[ x > 4.76 + 2.41 \]

  1. Now, calculate \( 4.76 + 2.41 \):

\[ 4.76 + 2.41 = 7.17 \]

  1. Therefore, we have:

\[ x > 7.17 \]

So the correct response is:

x > 7.17
