Question

.(1 point)
x>

Answer 1

To solve the inequality \( \frac{1}{2}x + 1 > 9 \), follow these steps:

1. Subtract 1 from both sides: \[ \frac{1}{2}x > 9 - 1 \] \[ \frac{1}{2}x > 8 \]

2. Multiply both sides by 2 to isolate \( x \): \[ x > 16 \]

So, the solution to the inequality is: \[ x > 16 \]
