Answer 2

Answer:

x > 14/3

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x-6 > 8\quad :\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:x > \frac{14}{3}\:\\ \:\mathrm{Decimal:}&\:x > 4.66666\dots \\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:\left(\frac{14}{3},\:\infty \:\right)\end{bmatrix}$

$\mathrm{Add\:}6\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}$

$3x-6+6 > 8+6$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$3x > 14$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}3$

$\frac{3x}{3} > \frac{14}{3}$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$x > \frac{14}{3}$
