Question

Which of the following numbers would be in the solution set to this inequality? Mark all that apply.

x/6 - 4 > -3

1. 6
2. 5
3. 7
4. 8

please explain.

Answer 1

Add 4 on both sides

x/6 > 1

Multiply by 6

x > 1 x 6 = 6

x > 6

So numbers that would be a solution would be numbers greater than 6, which would be 7 and 8.
