Question

Solve 16x + 8 > 12x+ 20.

O A. x < 7
O B. x < 3
O C. X > 23
O D. x > 27

Answer 1

x > 3

Explanation:

16x + 8 > 12x + 20 <== subtract 12x from both sides

- 12x - 12x

4x + 8 > 20 <== subtract 8 from both sides

- 8 - 8

4x > 12 <== divide both sides by 4

/4 /4

x > 3

This means that x is any value that is greater (bigger) than 3.

Hope this helps!
