The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to find the values of \( x \) for which the numerator \( 6x + 1 \) is greater than the denominator \( 7 - 4x \). ### Step 1: Set up the inequality We start with the inequality: \[ 6x + 1 > 7 - 4x \] ### Step 2: Rearrange the inequality To solve for \( x \), we first move all terms involving \( x \) to one side and constant terms to the other side. We can do this by adding \( 4x \) to both sides and subtracting \( 1 \) from both sides: \[ 6x + 4x > 7 - 1 \] This simplifies to: \[ 10x > 6 \] ### Step 3: Solve for \( x \) Next, we divide both sides of the inequality by \( 10 \): \[ x > \frac{6}{10} \] This simplifies to: \[ x > \frac{3}{5} \] ### Step 4: Consider the range of \( x \) We are given that \( x \) can take any value between \(-2\) and \(2\), inclusive. Therefore, we need to combine this condition with the result from the inequality: \[ \frac{3}{5} < x \leq 2 \] ### Step 5: Write the final answer The values of \( x \) for which the numerator is greater than the denominator are: \[ \frac{3}{5} < x \leq 2 \] ### Conclusion Thus, the final answer is that \( x \) can take any value in the range: \[ \frac{3}{5} < x \leq 2 \]
