Find the solution set of 4x−3>9

and x+6>−2
.(1 point)

1 answer

To solve the inequalities \( 4x - 3 > 9 \) and \( x + 6 > -2 \), we will solve each inequality separately and then find their intersection.

  1. Solving \( 4x - 3 > 9 \): \[ 4x - 3 > 9 \] Add 3 to both sides: \[ 4x > 12 \] Now, divide both sides by 4: \[ x > 3 \]

  2. Solving \( x + 6 > -2 \): \[ x + 6 > -2 \] Subtract 6 from both sides: \[ x > -8 \]

  3. Finding the solution set: We now have two inequalities:

    • \( x > 3 \)
    • \( x > -8 \)

    The more restrictive condition is \( x > 3 \), because any number greater than 3 will also satisfy \( x > -8 \).

So, the solution set for the given inequalities is: \[ \boxed{(3, \infty)} \]
