Question

solve for x and graph the solution on the number line below. 2x > 4

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate the variable x

Divide both sides of the inequality $2x>4$ by 2.
$\frac{2x}{2}>\frac{4}{2}$

Step2: Simplify the inequality

$x > 2$

Answer:

The solution is $x>2$. On the number - line, we draw an open circle at 2 (because 2 is not included in the solution) and draw an arrow to the right to represent all the numbers greater than 2.
