Answer:
The first step when factoring any polynomial is to factor out the GCF. The GCF is the greatest common factor for all the terms of the polynomial. By factoring out the GCF first, the coefficients and constant term of the polynomial will be reduced.
8x + 2 > 34
Subtract 2 from both sides to start isolating x
8x > 32
Divide both sides by 8 to isolate x
x > 4
x is greater than 4
