Using a sample inequality, take 35>? + 3. Making that?=x, we have 35 > x+3. Subtracting 3 from both sides, we get 32 > x. Therefore, as long as 32 is greater than x, any value replacing x is fine.

I challenge you to apply this strategy to this problem! Good luck, and feel free to ask with any questions!
