To solve the inequality \( x^7 + 13 > 20 \), we start by isolating the term with \( x \):
-
Subtract 13 from both sides: \[ x^7 > 20 - 13 \] \[ x^7 > 7 \]
-
To solve for \( x \), we take the seventh root of both sides: \[ x > 7^{1/7} \]
-
Since \( 7^{1/7} \) is approximately \( 1.47 \), we can express the solution as: \[ x > 7^{1/7} \]
-
None of the options explicitly state \( x > 7^{1/7} \), but we see that \( 1.47 \) is greater than \( 1 \). Therefore, the best fitting option in the provided responses is:
- \( x > 1 \)
So the solution to the inequality is \( x > 1 \).
