What is the first step in solving for x in `3x + 5 > 11` ?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

hint: undo the `+5`

OpenStudy (blackstreet23):

yes but how do i find a value for both?

@Agl202

OpenStudy (decarr432):

Okay When you find a value for one plug it into the second equation and see if it fits if not repeat the steps

OpenStudy (decarr432):

And are any answer choices given??

OpenStudy (blackstreet23):

no

OpenStudy (decarr432):

Okay fun XD

OpenStudy (decarr432):

Choose which side you want to work with first I recommend the second one

OpenStudy (decarr432):

Hello are you there?

OpenStudy (decarr432):

Continuing anyway. Take numbers and plug them in for x like so 1-3<1

OpenStudy (decarr432):

Now that we have a number for our x lets plug it into the second one 3(1)+5>11

OpenStudy (decarr432):

would that work?
