Let's Check Our Answer!
We can check our solution by substituting a few values into the given inequality. The value satisfies the inequality if the inequality remains true after substituting and simplifying.
x
x + 0.7 > - 0.3
Simplify
True or False?
- 1
- 1 + 0.7 > - 0.3
- 0.3 ≯ - 0.3
False
0
0 + 0.7 > - 0.3
0.7 > - 0.3
True
1
1 + 0.7 > - 0.3
1.7 > - 0.3
True
We can conclude that as long as x is greater than - 1, the inequality is satisfied.
