Question 444274: I did solve this problem but I am not sure if it is correct?
This math problem was like this
I(x-4)/3I - 2 > 4
Is absolute value of (x-4)/3 = x/3 + 4/3 if this is correct than
x/3 + 4/3 -2 >4
x/3 > 4+2-4/3
x/3 > 18/3 - 4/3
x > (14/3)/3
x > 1.56
Please let me know if this is right. Thank you very much for your help.
