Answer:

{ -6, -4, -2}

Explanation:

Since x > - 8, x can be any number greater than - 8.

x = -7, -6, -5, -4,...

BUT, it can't be equal because it's not using this sign
\geq

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. { -10, -8, -6} can't be an inequality of x because it has -10, -8.

2.{ -8, 0, 8} can't be an inequality of x because of -8.

3.{ -9, 1, 7} can't be an inequality of x because -9 isn't greater than x.
