Solve : 5(x + 8)- 6> 4(x + 6); I got
5x + 40 - 6> 4x + 24
5x-4x + 34> 4x - 4x +24
x + 34 -34 > 24 - 34
x > -10; is this correct?
Looks good to me! Good job! :)
Looks right to me.

To solve the inequality 5(x + 8) - 6 > 4(x + 6), you correctly started by distributing the 5 and the 4:
5x + 40 - 6 > 4x + 24
Next, combine like terms on both sides of the inequality:
5x - 4x + 34 > 4x - 4x + 24
This simplifies to:
x + 34 > 24
To isolate the variable x, subtract 34 from both sides of the inequality:
x + 34 - 34 > 24 - 34
x > -10
Therefore, your solution is correct. x is greater than -10.
