Answer:

No

Explanation:

We need to tell that whether 8 satisfies the given inequality. The inequality is ,


:\implies 48 < 4x

  • now substitute x 12 is equal to 8 and check whether if it satisfies the given inequality.

Putting x = 8


:\implies 48 < 4x


:\implies 48 < 4 * 8


:\implies 48 < 32

  • this is not possible as 48 is greater than 32. x is equal to 8 is not a solution of the given inequality .

No it is not a solution .

\huge\text{Hey there!}


\mathsf{48 < 4x}


\large\textsf{TURN the given EQUATION}


\mathsf{4x > 48}


\large\textsf{DIVIDE 4 to BOTH SIDES}


\mathsf{(4x)/(4)>(48)/(4)}


\large\textsf{CANCEL out: }\mathsf{(4)/(4)}\large\textsf{ because that gives you 1}


\large\textsf{KEEP: }\mathsf{(48)/(4)}\large\textsf{ because it helps us compare to the x value.}


\mathsf{x >(48)/(4)}


\mathsf{(48)/(4)}\\\\\mathsf{= 48/4}\\\\\mathsf{\boxed{\bf = 12}}


\boxed{\mathsf{x > 12}}


\boxed{\boxed{\large\text{Answer: \bf NO, because }\mathsf{\bf x < 12}\large\text{ \bf \&amp; it is an O.P.E.N. circle shaded}}}\\\boxed{\boxed{\large\text{\bf the right}}}\huge\checkmark
