Question

Solve 3x - 6 > 8 using inverse operations

Answer 1

x > 14/3

Explanation:

3x > 8 + 6

3x > 14

x > 14/3

Answer 2

x > 14/3

Explanation:

`3x-6 > 8\quad :\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:x > (14)/(3)\:\\ \:\mathrm{Decimal:}&\:x > 4.66666\dots \\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:\left((14)/(3),\:\infty \:\right)\end{bmatrix}`

`\mathrm{Add\:}6\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}`

`3x-6+6 > 8+6`

`\mathrm{Simplify}`

`3x > 14`

`\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}3`

`(3x)/(3) > (14)/(3)`

`\mathrm{Simplify}`

`x > (14)/(3)`
