The solution to the inequality 7x + 18 > -3 is x > -3.
To solve the inequality 7x + 18 > -3, we can follow these steps:
Step 1: Subtract 18 from both sides of the inequality:
7x + 18 - 18 > -3 - 18
7x > -21
Step 2: Divide both sides of the inequality by 7 (since we want to isolate the variable x):
(7x)/7 > (-21)/7
x > -3
Therefore, the solution to the inequality is x > -3.
To solve the inequality 7x + 18 > -3, we need to isolate the variable x on one side.
1. Subtract 18 from both sides of the inequality:
7x + 18 - 18 > -3 - 18
This simplifies to:
7x > -21
2. Divide both sides of the inequality by 7 to solve for x:
(7x)/7 > (-21)/7
This simplifies to:
x > -3
Therefore, the solution to the inequality 7x + 18 > -3 is x > -3. This means that x is greater than -3.
