Let's solve this inequality!

[tex]\rm{-x+20>-7+35[/tex]

What can we do to solve this inequality? Well, first of all, we can add -7 and 35:

[tex]\rm{-x+20>28[/tex]

Now, move 20 to the right, using the opposite operation:

[tex]\rm{-x>28-20[/tex]

Subtract:

[tex]\rm{-x>8[/tex]

Divide both sides by -1 to isolate x:
