What is the solution for the inequality 8 - 3x > 2?
Correct Answer: x < 2
  • Step 1: Start with the inequality: 8 - 3x > 2.
  • Step 2: Subtract 8 from both sides to isolate the term with x: -3x > 2 - 8.
  • Step 3: Simplify the right side: -3x > -6.
  • Step 4: Divide both sides by -3. Remember, when you divide by a negative number, you must flip the inequality sign: x < 2.
