Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define
1/2(12x + 18) > 99
Step 2: Solve for x
- [Multiplication Property of Equality] Multiply 2 on both sides: 12x + 18 > 198
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 18 on both sides: 12x > 180
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide 12 on both sides: x > 15
Here we see that any value x greater than 15 would work as a solution to the inequality.
