does the inequality x+7>x-4 have no solution, or can x be all real numbers? how do you graph that? please exlain

zepdrix (zepdrix):

\[\Large\rm x+7\gt x-4\]Subtracting x from each side gives us:\[\Large\rm 7\gt-4\]Since our variable fell out of the equation, this expression will either `always be true` or `never true`. Does the expression look true in this case? Is 7 larger than -4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Ok good, so it's true for all x.

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Graphing it? Hmm

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Do you usually graph on a number line? Or in x-y coordinate grid?
