MCQ
If $4\text{x}+3<6\text{x}+7$ then x belongs to the interval:
  • A
    $(2,\infty)$
  • B
    $(-2,\infty)$
  • C
    $(-\infty, 2)$
  • D
    $(-4,\infty)$

Answer

  1. $(-2,\infty)$

Solution:

$4\text{x}+3<6\text{x}+7$

Subtracting 3 from both sides,

$4\text{x}+3<6\text{x}+7-3$

$\Rightarrow4\text{x}<6\text{x}+4$

Subtracting 6x from both sides,

$4\text{x} – 6\text{x} <6\text{x} + 4 – 6\text{x}$

$\Rightarrow– 2\text{x}<4$ or

$\Rightarrow\text{x}>-2\text{ i.e..,}$ all the real numbers greater than –2, are the solutions of the given inequality.

Hence, the solution set is $(–2,\infty), \text{i}.\text{e}.\text{x}\in(-2,\infty)$
