Given the inequality equation:

5x - 9 > 11

Solve the given inequality equation.

Solution:

In order to solve the given inequality equation, we simply need to transpose -9 to the other side of the equation, hence we must take note that when transposing a number, the sign changes.

5x - 9 > 11 

5x > 11 + 9

5x > 20

Divide both sides by 5 in order to cancel out 5x leaving behind x.

5x/5 > 20/5

x > 4

Final answer:

x > 4
