Question

What value of x is in the solution set of 8x - 6 > 12 + 2x?

A)-1
B)0
C)3
D)5

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is C. 3

Therefore the value of x in the solution set of

$8x-6 > 12+2x$

is

$x>3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$8x-6 > 12+2x$

To Find:

x = ?

Solution:

$8x-6 > 12+2x$       .......Given:

Step 1 : Add '6' on Both the side we get

$8x-6+6 > 12+2x+6\\8x > 18+2x$

Step 2 : Subtract '2x' from Both the side we get

$8x-2x > 18+2x-2x\\6x > 18$

Step 3 : Dividing by '6 on Both the side we get

$\dfrac{6x}{6} >\dfrac{18}{6}\\\\x > 3$

Therefore the value of x in the solution set of

$8x-6 > 12+2x$

is

$x>3$
