There are several ways to answer this question and I will use this approach. Since Johnny reads at a ratio of 7:3 it can be stated that for every 10 pages in a book containing 500 pages Johnny will read 7 of those pages. There are 50 groups of 10 in a 500-page book (50 x 10). Take the ration 7:3 times 50 and use the distributive property: 7:3(50) = (7 x 50):(3 x 50) = 350:150. Based on this Johnny has read 350 pages and has 150 pages remaining.

Answer:
x>1.16
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 5 from each side to get 4x>14-8x
change the symbol from +8 to -8
4x> 14+ (-8x)
than add 8x to both sides
12x > 14
which would mean that x has to be greater than 1.16
x>1.16
