What value of x is in the solution set of 8x – 6 > 12 + 2x?

–1
0
3
5

x > 3 (the third option)

Step-by-step explanation:

8x - 6 > 12 + 2x

subtract 2x from both sides

6x - 6 > 12

add 6 to both sides

6x > 18

isolate the variable

x > 3

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the inequality

8x - 6 > 12 + 2x ( subtract 2x from both sides )

6x - 6 > 12 ( add 6 to both sides )

6x > 18 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x > 3

The only value of x greater than 3 is x = 5

45
