Question

What is the solution set for 3x>6?

Answer 1

Isolate the x

divide 3 from both sides

3x/3 > 6/3

x > 6/3

x > 2 is your answer

Note: because you are not dividing by a negative number, you do not need to flip the sign

hope this helps

Answer 2

X>2 because you first divide 3 by 3, to cancel out the 3 and what you do to one side you do to the other. So you divide 6 by three which equal 2. This process is to isolate the x, so you can somewhat determine what x is. Therefore x is greater than 2, x>2
