\huge\textsf{Hey there!}


\large\text{x + 8 } \mathsf{>}\large\text{ 14}


\large\textsf{SUBTRACT 8 to BOTH SIDES}


\large\text{x + 8 - 8 }\mathsf{>}\large\text{ 14 - 8}


\large\textsf{CANCEL out: \text{8 - 8} because that gives you \text{0}}


\large\textsf{KEEP: \text{14 - 8} because that helps what you are comparing to the \text{x}}


\large\text{x }\mathsf{> }\large\text{ 14 - 8}


\large\text{14 - 8 = \boxed{\bf 6}}\large\checkmark


\large\text{x }\mathsf{>}\large\text{ 6}


\boxed{\boxed{\large\textsf{Answer: \bf x}\mathsf{\bf >}\large\text{ \bf 6 }}}\huge\checkmark


\large\textsf{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}
