A garden table and a bench cost $786 combined. The garden table costs $36 more than the bench. What is the cost of the bench?

b + b + 36 = 788

Solve for b.

b + b + 36 = 786

To solve the inequality for x, we want to isolate x on one side of the inequality sign. Let's go step by step:

1. Start with the given inequality: 29 > 5 + 4x.

2. To isolate x, we need to get rid of the constant term (5) on the right side. We can do this by subtracting 5 from both sides of the inequality: 29 - 5 > 5 + 4x - 5.

Simplifying this, we get: 24 > 4x.

3. Now, we want to isolate x. Divide both sides of the inequality by 4: 24/4 > 4x/4.

Simplifying this further, we get: 6 > x.

So, the solution to the inequality for x is x < 6.
