x<7.17
x less-than 7.17

x>2.35
x greater-than 2.35

Answer 1

To solve the inequality \( x - 2.41 > 4.76 \), we can isolate \( x \) by adding \( 2.41 \) to both sides:

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

This simplifies to:

\[
x > 4.76 + 2.41
\]

Calculating the right side:

\[
4.76 + 2.41 = 7.17
\]

So the solution to the inequality is:

\[
x > 7.17
\]

Thus, the correct response is:

**x > 7.17**.
