Question

Which value below is included in the solution set for the inequality statement?

-3(x - 4) > 6(x - 1)

Answer 1

You haven't provided any value, but I can tell you the solution set for the inequality.

First of all, expand both sides:

`-3x+12 > 6x-6`

Add 3x to both sides:

`12 > 9x-6`

Add 6 to both sides:

`18 > 9x`

Which is of course equivalent to

`9x < 18`

Divide both sides by 9

`x < 2`

So, every number smaller than 2 is part of the solution of this inequality.
