Answer 2

First, let's work on the left hand side of your inequality, the 2x+10
This means, for instance, to see if it can be simplified at all.
Multiply x and 2
Multiply x and 1



The x just gets copied along.

The answer is x

x

2*x evaluates to 2x

2*x+10 evaluates to 2x+10

So, all-in-all, the left hand side of your inequality can be written as: 2x+10

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, let's work on the right hand side of your inequality, the 26
The right hand side of your inequality can be written as: 26
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So with these (any) simplifications, the inequality we'll set out to solve is:

2x+10 › 26


Move the 10 to the right hand side by subtracting 10 from both sides, like this:


From the left hand side:
10 - 10 = 0

The answer is 2x

From the right hand side:
26 - 10 = 16

The answer is 16


Now, the inequality reads:
2x › 16
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.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The last step is to divide both sides of the inequality by 2 like this:

To divide x by 1



The x just gets copied along in the numerator.

The answer is x

2x ÷ 2 = x



16 ÷ 2 = 8

Answer 3

So we would en up with x >8 and that leaves us with C and D

Answer 4

I think D would be the answer?

Answer 5

Yes, -18 is too far off form 8 so D is correct.
