Answer:


x > (10)/(7)

Explanation:


6x + (1)/(4) (4x + 8) > 12

Expand the terms in the bracket

That's


6x + x + 2 > 12 \\ 7x + 2 > 12

Subtract 2 from both sides of the inequality

That's


7x + 2 - 2 > 12 - 2 \\ 7x > 10

Divide both sides by 7

That's


(7x)/(7) > (10)/(7)

We have the final answer as


x > (10)/(7)

Hope this helps you
