Answer 1

The answer to your question is: None

Explanation:

Inequality

3(1 + x) > x + 17

Evaluate 0 and 1

3(1 + x) > x + 17 3(1 + x) > x + 17

3(1 + 0) > 0 + 17 3 (1 + 1) > 1 + 17

3 > 17 6 > 18

False

Evaluate 2 and 3

3(1 + x) > x + 17 3(1 + x) > x + 17

3(1 + 2) > 2 + 17 3(1 + 3) > 3 + 17

9 > 19 16 > 20

False

Evaluate 4 and 5

3(1 + 4) > 4 + 17 3(1 + 5) > 5 + 17

15 > 21 18 > 22

False

Evaluate 6 and 7

3(1 + 6) > 6 + 17 3(1 + 7) > 7 + 17

21 > 23 24 > 24

False

Answer 2
