Useful property: If two inequalities are such that their inequality symbols are facing the same direction, we can ADD those inequalities.
From the given inequality, we can make the two following conclusions:
w > x
y > z
Since the inequality symbols are facing the same direction, we can ADD those inequalities to get: w + y > x + z
