To solve the inequality 5w + 6 > 26, we need to isolate the variable w.
Subtracting 6 from both sides gives us:
5w > 20
Next, we divide both sides by 5 to solve for w:
w > 4
To check our solution, we can substitute any value greater than 4 into the original inequality and see if it holds true. For example, let's try w = 5:
5(5) + 6 > 26
25 + 6 > 26
31 > 26
Since 31 is indeed greater than 26, we can conclude that the solution w > 4 is correct.
Solve the inequality. Check your solutions.
5w +6 > 26
