Question

For which values of x is the inequality 2(1 + x) > x + 8 true?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\text{For}\ x>6\to x\in(6,\ \infty)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$2(1+x)>x+8$                 use distributive property

$2+2x>x+8$       subtract 2 from both sides

$2x>x+6$           subtract x from both sides

$x>6$
