Addition property of equality

Division property of equality

Solution:

Given inequality is:

3x - 2 > 4


\mathrm{Add\:}2\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}

Here, Addition property of equality is used

When the same amount is added to both sides of an inequality, then the inequality is still true

3x - 2 + 2 > 4 + 2

3x > 6


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

Here, Division property of equality is used

When we divide both sides of an equation by the same nonzero number, the sides remain equal.


(3x)/(3)>(6)/(3)\\\\x > 2

Thus the property used in each step of solving the inequality is found
