Answer: x > 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:


\displaystyle (1)/(3)x- (2)/(7)x > (1)/(3)

Subtract:


\displaystyle (1)/(21)x > (1)/(3)

Divide both sides of the equation by
(1)/(21):


\displaystyle x > 7

What does this mean?

This means the x is equal to all values greater than 7.

-> 7.432421, 7.5, 8, 250, etc
