Question

Which of the following is a solution of 12x - 7 > 6?

Answer 1

-1
0
1
2

Answer 2

Either solve for x (the correct way to proceed) or plug each value into the inequality one at a time and see if it is true (not the recommended method, but it will work).

Answer 3

is it 1?

Answer 4

It might or might not be. If I see your work, I'll be able to tell if you are going about things the right way. We tutors can't just give or confirm answers.

Answer 5

12 x 1 + 12 -7 = 5

Answer 6

12 x 1 = 12 - 7 = 5

Answer 7

12x-6>6
+6 +6
12x>12
x>1

Answer 8

12x - 7 > 6 -> (12x - 7) + 7 > 6 + 7 -> 12x + (-7 + 7) > 6 + 7 -> 12x + 0 > 13 -> 12x > 13 -> x > 13/12

Answer 9

So, 1 is not > 13/12, so you have to find another selection that is greater than 13/12.
