Solve 5.14x+2.25>15.1 write the rational number in your answer in decimal form to the tenth place. Make sure to write your inequality so that x comes first

Answer 1

5.14x + 2.25 > 15.1

First, we need to isolate x. Let's start by subtracting 2.25 from both sides of the inequality:

5.14x > 15.1 - 2.25
5.14x > 12.85

Next, divide both sides by 5.14 to solve for x:

x > 12.85 / 5.14

x > 2.5 (rounded to the tenths place)
