The solution set is null.
The solution set is null.

{3,−8}

1 answer

To solve the inequalities:

  1. Inequality 1: \( 4x - 3 > 9 \)

    First, add 3 to both sides:

    \[ 4x > 12 \]

    Next, divide both sides by 4:

    \[ x > 3 \]

  2. Inequality 2: \( x + 6 > -2 \)

    Subtract 6 from both sides:

    \[ x > -8 \]

Now we combine the two solution sets:

  • From the first inequality, we have \( x > 3 \).
  • From the second inequality, we have \( x > -8 \).

Since \( x > 3 \) is a stronger condition than \( x > -8 \), the solution set is determined by \( x > 3 \).

Thus, the solution set is:

\[ { x \mid x > 3 } \]

So, the response is:

\({ x \mid x > 3 }\)
