Answer:

n >9

Explanation:

4(n-3)- 6 > 18

Distribute the 4

4n-12 - 6 > 18

Combine like terms

4n -18 > 18

Add 18 to each side

4n-18+18 > 18+18

4n > 36

Divide by 4

4n/4 > 36/4

n >9

Answer:

n>9

Explanation:

4(n-3)- 6 > 18

To solve this inequality we need to remove the parenthesis

distribute 4 inside the parenthesis

4n -12 - 6 > 18

Now combine like terms

4n - 18 > 18

We need to isolate 'n', so we add 18 on both sides

4n > 36

Now divide both sides by 4

n > 9

So the value of n is greater than 9
