Question

Solve for x: −8>x>6
A. −7
B. 7
C. 0D. 0≤x<7

Answer 1

To solve the inequality -8>x>6, we need to break it down into two separate inequalities: -8>x and x>6. The overall solution is x > 8, and the correct answer is A. -7.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the inequality -8>x>6, we need to break it down into two separate inequalities:
-8>x and x>6
For the first inequality , -8>x, we can simplify it by multiplying both sides by -1:

8<x
For the second inequality, x>6, we have:

x>6

So the overall solution is:

8<x and x>6

Combining the two solutions, we get:

x > 8 and x>6

This can be further simplified to:

x > 8

Therefore, the correct answer is A. -7.
