Question

What is `x` in the equation `x` +8 > -3?

Answer 1

Take a look at the explanation.

Explanation:

You would first want to subtract the 8 from both sides to isolate the `x`:

`x+8> -3`

You then have this:

`x> -11`

I came up with `-11` because to 'subtract' a number from a negative, you are practically 'adding' the number to the negative.

Therefore, your solution would be:

`x> -11`
