For which values of x is the inequality 2(1 + x) > x + 8 true?

A) 3 & 2
B) 4 & 3
C) 6 & 5
D) 7 & 8

Its D not C

To find the values of x for which the inequality 2(1 + x) > x + 8 is true, we need to solve the inequality.

First, let's simplify the inequality:
2(1 + x) > x + 8

Distribute 2 to both terms inside the parentheses:
2 + 2x > x + 8

Now, we will isolate the variable x on one side of the inequality:
2x - x > 8 - 2

Simplifying further:
x > 6

Therefore, the inequality 2(1 + x) > x + 8 is true for values of x greater than 6.

Looking at the answer choices provided, the only option that includes values greater than 6 is:

C) 6 & 5

Therefore, the correct answer is option C) 6 & 5.

Hey guys its C

Your welcome

have you tried the obvious and substituted the given values in the inequation to see if it makes it true?

the answer is c thank me later
