Solution :-

Given:

4x – 2 < 8

4x – 2 + 2 < 8 + 2

4x < 10

So divide by 4 on both sides we get,

\( \dfrac{4x}{4} < \dfrac{10}{4}\)

x < \( \dfrac{5}{2}\)

(i) x ∈ R

When x is a real number, the solution of the given inequation is (-∞, \( \dfrac{5}{2}\)).

(ii) x ∈ Z

When, 2 <\( \dfrac{5}{2}\) < 3

So when, when x is an integer, the maximum possible value of x is 2.

The solution of the given inequation is {…, –2, –1, 0, 1, 2}.

(iii) x ∈ N

When, 2 < \( \dfrac{5}{2}\) < 3

So when, when x is a natural number, the maximum possible value of x is 2. We know that the natural numbers start from 1, the solution of the given inequation is {1, 2}.
