Question

solve for $x$ and graph the solution on the number line below.
$18 < 10 + x$
answer attempt 1 out of 2
< > ≤ ≥ or
inequality notation:
number line:
-12 -10 -8 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 8 10 12
click and drag to plot line.

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate x

Subtract 10 from both sides of the inequality.
$18-10<10 + x-10$

Step2: Simplify

$8 8$

Answer:

Inequality Notation: $x>8$
Number Line: On the number - line, you would place an open circle at 8 (because 8 is not included in the solution set, due to the strict inequality $>$) and draw an arrow to the right to represent all the numbers greater than 8.
