Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Solve the inequality x/3 - 2 > 1. What is the solution set?
Correct Answer: x > 9
  • Step 1: Start with the inequality: x/3 - 2 > 1.
  • Step 2: To isolate x/3, add 2 to both sides of the inequality: x/3 - 2 + 2 > 1 + 2.
  • Step 3: This simplifies to: x/3 > 3.
  • Step 4: Now, to get rid of the fraction, multiply both sides by 3: 3 * (x/3) > 3 * 3.
  • Step 5: This simplifies to: x > 9.
  • Step 6: The solution set is all values of x that are greater than 9.
