To solve the inequality 5.14x + 2.25 > 15.1, we need to isolate the variable x on one side of the inequality.
First, subtract 2.25 from both sides of the inequality:
5.14x + 2.25 - 2.25 > 15.1 - 2.25
5.14x > 12.85
Next, divide both sides of the inequality by 5.14 to solve for x:
(5.14x)/5.14 > (12.85)/5.14
x > 2.5
So, the solution to the inequality 5.14x + 2.25 > 15.1 is x > 2.5.
