Finding unknown values

We have to find the value of a number, let's call it x

What we know...

We know 6 times a number (6x),

is greater than 4 times the number minus 2 (4x - 2)

Therefore

6x > 4x - 2

Solving the inequality...

6x - 4x > -2 [Substracting 4x both sides]

2x > -2 [6x - 4x = 2x]

x > -2/2 [Divinding by 2 both sides}

x > - 1 [ -2/2 = -1 ]

Answer: The number that satisfies the condition must be greater than -1: x >-1
