Question

Which of the following numbers is not part of the solution to x>1?

1
1.2
4
8

Answer 1

1

Explanation:

Since the question is asking what makes the statement x>1 true, we can determine that 1.2, 4, and 8 all fit because these numbers are all greater than 1 and, if we plug them in for x, it makes the expression correct. The statement is not asking if x is greater than OR EQUAL to 1, only if it is greater than. Since 1 is NOT greater than 1, that is the answer.

Answer 2

1

Explanation:

1=1 therefore x can not be 1
