Question

A group has more than $120 to spend. The inequality 5x + 20 > 120 represents the cost to rent a hall for a conference, where x represents the number of hours the group can rent the hall. Which of the following is the solution for this situation?

Answer 1

Answer:

x>20

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to try and get the x alone so

5x + 20 > 120

     -20     -20  Subtract 20 from each side

5x        > 100

5x/5    > 100/5 Divide 5 from each side

       x  > 20
