(i) Given that, 3x + 8 > 2
Now by subtracting 8 from both sides we get,
3x + 8 – 8 > 2 – 8
The above inequality becomes,
3x > – 6
Again by dividing both sides by 3 we get,
\( \dfrac{3x}{3}> \dfrac{-6}{3} \)
Hence x > -2
When x is an integer then
It is clear that the integer number greater than -2 are -1, 0, 1, 2,…
Thus, solution of 3x + 8 > 2is -1, 0, 1, 2,… when x is an integer.
Hence the solution set is {-1, 0, 1, 2,…}
(ii) Given that, 3x + 8 > 2
Now by subtracting 8 from both sides we get,
3x + 8 – 8 > 2 – 8
The above inequality becomes,
3x > – 6
Again by dividing both sides by 3 we get,
\( \dfrac{3x}{3}> \dfrac{-6}{3} \)
Hence x > -2
When x is a real number.
It is clear that the solutions of 3x + 8 >2 will be given by x > -2 which states that all the real numbers that are greater than -2.
Therefore the solution set is x ∈ (-2, ∞)
