Question

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

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate the variable x

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

Step2: Simplify the expressions

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

Answer:

Inequality Notation: $x > 8$
Number Line: Draw an open - circle at 8 on the number line and shade to the right of 8.
