Question

Solve the inequality –8 < x – 14.

Answer 1

Add 14 to both sides. What do you get?

Answer 2

You want to get x all by itself on one side of the inequality. On the right side, we have x -14. We can eliminate the 14 by adding it to both sides. Then we're done, although we could flip the whole inequality to get x on the left side, which is how it's usually written.

Answer 3

I got 6

Answer 4

On the left side, you will get 6. But don't forget the rest of the inequality:
6<x
OR
x>6

Answer 5

x < 6 ?

Answer 6

Well. X is on the right side.
So you would get:
6 < x
OR
x > 6

Does that make sense?
