Q. Anne picked out 33 board games from her cabinet to take to a game night with her friends. She still has more than 1010 board games in the cabinet, so she thinks she could bring a few more.\newlineLet xx represent how many board games were in Anne's cabinet to start. Which inequality describes the problem?\newlineChoices:\newline(A) x3>10x - 3 > 10\newline(B) x310x - 3 \geq 10\newlineSolve the inequality. Then, complete the sentence to describe the solution.\newlineThere were more than ____ board games in Anne's cabinet to start.
  1. Set up inequality: Anne initially had xx board games. After taking 33 to the game night, she still has more than 1010 left. Set up the inequality to represent this situation: x - 3 > 10.
  2. Solve inequality: Solve the inequality x - 3 > 10. Add 33 to both sides to isolate xx:x - 3 + 3 > 10 + 3x > 13
