Inequality Notation: 80 < 10x

Number Line:
-10 -8 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 8 10 12

Solution on number line:
Divide both sides of the inequality by 10 to solve for x:
80/10 < x
8 < x

Graph the solution on the number line:
Draw an open circle at 8 on the number line, indicating that it is not included in the solution. Shade to the right of 8 to show all numbers greater than 8 are solutions.
