Given:

The inequality is:


6x+(1)/(4)(4x+3)>12

To find:

The values for x.

Solution:

We have,


6x+(1)/(4)(4x+3)>12

Using distributive property, we get


6x+(1)/(4)(4x)+(1)/(4)(3)>12


6x+x+(3)/(4)>12


7x>12-(3)/(4)


7x>(48-3)/(4)

On further simplification, we get


7x>(45)/(4)

Divide both sides by 7.


x>(45)/(7* 4)


x>(45)/(28)

Therefore, the required solution is
x>(45)/(28).

Note: All options are incorrect.
