Sue has more than 5 cookies inequality

s > 5

Step-by-step explanation:

s is the number of cookies Sue has.

Since she has more than 5 cookies, the number of cookies she has is greater than 5.

Hello there! An inequality modeling this could be x > 5.

When setting up this equation, we can use x to model the number of cookies that Sue has.

Remember that these are the symbols we use to represent inequalities:

< - greater than

> - less than

≤ - greater than or equal to

≥ - less than or equal to

Since the number of cookies Sue has is greater than 5 (but not equal to), we use the symbol.

We can represent her having x amount of cookies, which is more than 5, like this: x > 5,

I hope this helps and have a great day! :)

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
