Question

Part 1: Solve the compound inequality 7x - 4 > 31 and 7x - 4 59 and show all of your work. You can use <= to represent the less than or equal to symbol.
Part 2: Use complete sentences to describe the graph of the solution from Part 1.

Answer 1

Pretend they are equations for a minute.

7x-4=31
7x = 35
x = 5

and then remember the inequality

x > 5

Can you do the same with the other part?
