Step-by-step explanation

  • Given the Inequality.


x - (3)/(4) \geqslant - (1)/(8)

  • Solve the Inequality for x-term.


x \geqslant - (1)/(8) + (3)/(4)

Make both fractions to have same denominators by multiply 2 in 3/4 for both numerator and denominator.


x \geqslant - (1)/(8) + (3 * 2)/(4 * 2) \\ x \geqslant - ( 1)/(8) + (6)/(8) \\ x \geqslant (5)/(8)

Hence, the solution is, "x is greater or equal to 5/8."

Answer


\large \boxed{x \geqslant (5)/(8) }
