Question

Can someone explain how to solve this and the solution? Please and thank you :)

Answer 1

25 > 2x + 8 - 66

first simplify all numbers

25 > 2x + (8  - 66)
25 > 2x - 58

Then add 58 to both sides

25 (+58) > 2x - 58 (+58)
83 > 2x

Finally divide 2 from both sides to isolate the x

83/2 > 2x/2

41.5 > x

hope this helps
