X - 3 greater than 7

X - 3 > 7

x > 7 + 3

x > 10

answer x > 10

First, let's work on the left hand side of your inequality, the x-3

This means, for instance, to see if it can be simplified at all.

x-3 evaluates to x-3So, all-in-all, the left hand side of your inequality can be written as: x-3Now, let's work on the right hand side of your inequality, the 7

The right hand side of your inequality can be written as: 7 So with these (any) simplifications, the inequality we'll set out to solve is:

x-3 7

Move the - 3 to the right hand side by adding 3 to both sides, like this:

To the left hand side:

-3 + 3 = 0 The answer is x To the right hand side:

7 + 3 = 10

Now, the inequality reads:

x>=10

To isolate the x, we have to divide both sides of the inequality by the other "stuff" (variables or coefficients)

around the x on the left side of the inequality.

and this is the final solution to your inequality.

The answer is 10
