Question

How do you solve `-1.6< - 6+ x`?

Answer 1

See a solution process below:

Explanation:

Add `color(red)(6)` to each side of the inequality to solve for `x` while keeping the inequality balanced:

`color(red)(6) - 1.6 < color(red)(6) - 6 + x`

`4.4 < 0 + x`

`4.4 < x`

To state the solution in terms of `x` we can reverse or "flip" the entire inequality:

`x > 4.4`
