To solve the inequalities \(4x - 3 > 9\) and \(x + 6 > -2\), we will solve each inequality separately.
-
Solving \(4x - 3 > 9\): \[ 4x - 3 > 9 \] First, add 3 to both sides: \[ 4x > 9 + 3 \] \[ 4x > 12 \] Next, divide both sides by 4: \[ x > 3 \]
-
Solving \(x + 6 > -2\): \[ x + 6 > -2 \] First, subtract 6 from both sides: \[ x > -2 - 6 \] \[ x > -8 \]
Now we have the solutions to both inequalities:
- From the first inequality, we have \(x > 3\).
- From the second inequality, we have \(x > -8\).
Next, we need to find the intersection of these two solution sets.
- The solution set \(x > 3\) contains all numbers greater than 3.
- The solution set \(x > -8\) contains all numbers greater than -8.
Since \(x > 3\) is a stricter condition than \(x > -8\) (every number that is greater than 3 is also greater than -8), the intersection of the two sets is simply: \[ x > 3 \]
Thus, the final solution set is: \[ { x \mid x > 3 } \]
So, the answer from the given options is: \[ \boxed{D { x \mid x > 3 }} \]
