So I think you need to get x on one side of the equation by itself. You start by adding 4 to both sides.

-2x - 4 > 8

+4 +4

-2x > 12

Now we divide both sides by -2 because of that's the coefficient in front of x

-2x/-2 > 12/-2

Now we have our answer: x > -6

What belongs in the box marked with the question mark in the proof? Given: 4x + 1 = 6x - 2, Prove: x = 3/2

Tems11 [23]

We have the following expression:
4x + 1 = 6x - 2
We clear x of the expression.
We pass the variables to the right and the constant terms to the left:
1 + 2 = 6x-4x
We rewrite the expression:
3 = 2x
We passed the 2 to divide:
3/2 = x
Answer:
The value of x is:
x = 3/2
