Question

a number increased by 10 is greater than 50

Answer 1

Okay, in a word problem, something like "a number increased by 10" is code for "x + 10" (if x was the number).

Answer 2

So this problem could be set up like this x+10>50

Answer 3

subtract ten on both sides of the equation

Answer 4

10-10=0 and then 50-10 equals 40

Answer 5

You answer would be x > 40
