Solve the inequality.

g + 6 > 5

g > –1

g > 11

g < 1

g > 1

1 answer

To solve the inequality \( g + 6 > 5 \), we can isolate \( g \) by subtracting 6 from both sides:

\[ g + 6 - 6 > 5 - 6 \]

This simplifies to:

\[ g > -1 \]

Now, let's look at the options provided:

  1. \( g > -1 \) (This is correct)
  2. \( g > 11 \) (This is not correct)
  3. \( g < 1 \) (This is not correct)
  4. \( g > 1 \) (This is not necessarily correct)

Thus, the solution to the inequality is:

\[ g > -1 \]
