Given the inequality:

5 < x + 7

Part I: Solve the inequality. Write your solution as an inequality comparing the variable to the solution. Show and/or explain your work.

5 answers

To solve the inequality, we need to isolate the variable, x.

Subtract 7 from both sides of the inequality:

5 - 7 < x + 7 - 7

-2 < x

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is x > -2.
