Question

4(x + 2) > 6Please help me:(

Answer 1

We are given the following inequality

`4\left(x+2\right)>6`

Let us solve the inequality to find the value of x.

Step 1: open the brackets

`\begin{gathered} 4\left(x+2\right)>6 \\ 4x+8>6 \end{gathered}`

Step 2: subtract 8 from both sides

`\begin{gathered} 4x+8-8>6-8 \\ 4x>-2 \end{gathered}`

Step 3: divide both side by 4

`\begin{gathered} (4x)/(4)>(-2)/(4) \\ x>(-1)/(2) \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the value of x is greater than -1/2 that is (x > -1/2)
