Question 70624: Can you please explain the problem...instructions..solve and graph the solution set...x + 16 > 10. Answer by bucky(2189) (Show Source):

.
Add -16 to both sides to solve the inequality for x:
.
.
This means that x is not allowed to be -6 (because it is greater than -6) and x can be
any value on the number line that is to the right of -6.
.
For example, let x = 0. The inequality of the original problem becomes:
.
.
Which simplifies to:
.
.
This inequality is correct ... 16 is greater than 10, so x can be 0
.
Hope this helps you to understand how to work the inequality given in this problem. Graph
it by excluding -6 and drawing the graph all the way to the right of -6 on the number line.
