Final answer:

Option c). 4 and option d). 9 satisfy the inequality 2x > 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the inequality 2x > 7, we need to isolate the variable x.

We can do this by performing the inverse operation of multiplication, which is division.

Since the coefficient of x is 2, we divide both sides of the inequality by 2:

2x/2 > 7/2, which simplifies to x > 7/2 or x > 3.5.

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is any value of x greater than 3.5.

In the given options, the numbers 4 and 9 that satisfies this condition.
