Question

solve for x and graph the solution on the number line below.
56 < 7x
answer attempt 1 out of 2
< > ≤ ≥ or

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate x

Divide both sides of the inequality $56 < 7x$ by 7. Since 7 is positive, the inequality - sign remains the same.
$\frac{56}{7}<\frac{7x}{7}$

Step2: Simplify

$8 < x$ which can also be written as $x>8$.

Answer:

$x > 8$
On the number - line, there would be an open circle at 8 and an arrow pointing to the right.
