First, you just need to disregard the greater than sign because these types of equation is solved the same way as those with equals (=) sign in the middle. So when y=6, First you need to substitute y=6 to the y in 3y
3(6)>2x
By multiplying,
18>2x
By dividing both sides of the equation by 2
18/2 > 2x/2
9>x
However if you want to transpose x to the left side of the equation, you also need to reverse the sign to <
x must be smaller than 9, because 18=2*9 => 18=18, and we doesn't respect the rule
now that we know that x<9 we have other 2 cases... 1. x is a natural number x can take values from the interval [0, 8] 2. x is a rational number, so it can take values from the interval [8, - infinite)
The contributors to the proof are listed in the left column. They consist of a congruent Side, a congruent Angle, and a congruent Side. The SAS Postulate is an appropriate choice.
