Question

-x + 8 > 6
Help i dont understand this

Answer 1

The solution of the given inequality is x < 2

Explanation:

This is a linear equation if inequality with single variable x and if you want to solve it then you have to simplify it first.

We have the inequality as, - x + 8 > 6

⇒ - x + 8 - 8 > 6 - 8 {Subtracting 8 from both sides}

⇒ - x > - 2

Now, dividing both sides with - 1, we get

⇒ x < 2

As we are dividing both sides of an inequality then the sign of the inequality will change.

So, the solution to the given inequality is x < 2 (Answer)
