Answer:
a. 20x > 10x + 80
b. •20x > 10x + 80
• Subtract 10x from both sides: 20x -10x > 10x + 80 - 10x
• Simplify: 10x > 80
• Divide both sides by 10: 10x/10 > 80/10
• Simplify: x > 8
Step-by-step explanation:
10x + 80 = number of seashells Pilar has.
20x = number of seashells Marisol has.
answer for a: 20x > 10x + 80
answer for b: 20x > 10x + 80
• Subtract 10x from both sides: 20x -10x > 10x + 80 - 10x
• Simplify: 10x > 80
• Divide both sides by 10: 10x/10 > 80/10
• Simplify: x > 8
