Solve for x and graph the solution on the number line below. If possible, resolve your answer to a single inequality. In case of no solution (∅), leave the number line blank.34<3x+7 and 43>3x+7

So,

Here we have the following inequalities:


34<3x+7\text{ and }43>3x+7

We're going to solve each inequality and then notice which could be the solution set.

Let's begin with:


\begin{gathered} 34<3x+7 \\ 34-7<3x \\ 27<3x \\ (27)/(3)And now, let's solve the other one:[tex]\begin{gathered} 43>3x+7 \\ 43-7>3x \\ 36>3x \\ (36)/(3)>x \\ 12>x \end{gathered}

Now, what we have to do is to graph both solution sets and find the intersection between them:

As you can notice, both solution sets intersect at the interval (9,12).

So, the solution set is (9,12), which is: 9

If you have to graph it, put:

Which is 9
