Question

Solve the inequality. Graph the solution.

$3x+4>16$

Answer 1

Step 1 : Solve the inequality

We have,$3x+4>16$

$\Rightarrow 3x+4–4>16–4$ [ Subtract $4$ from both sides ]

$\Rightarrow 3x>12$

$\Rightarrow \frac{3x}{3}>\frac{12}{3}$ [ Divide both sides by $3$ ]

$\therefore x>4$

Step 2 : Draw the graph

We have, $x>4$

So, the graph is

Hence, the required solution is $x>4$ and the required graph is shown above.
