Solve for xx and graph the solution on the number line below.

Question

63, is less than, 7, x
63<
7x

Answer 1

To solve for x, we need to isolate x on one side of the inequality.

Divide both sides of the inequality by 7:
63 < 7x
63/7 < x
9 < x

So the solution is x > 9.

Graphing this solution on the number line:
Starting from 9, we shade to the right to indicate x is greater than 9.

Number line:
0---1---2---3---4---5---6---7---8---9---10---11---12---13---14---15---16---17---18---19---20
