The correct Answer is:
To solve the inequality \( 8 - x > \frac{1}{3} \) where \( x \) belongs to the set of positive integers \( \mathbb{Z}^+ \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the inequality We start with the given inequality: \[ 8 - x > \frac{1}{3} \] ### Step 2: Isolate \( x \) To isolate \( x \), we can first subtract 8 from both sides: \[ -x > \frac{1}{3} - 8 \] Calculating the right side: \[ \frac{1}{3} - 8 = \frac{1}{3} - \frac{24}{3} = \frac{1 - 24}{3} = \frac{-23}{3} \] So we have: \[ -x > \frac{-23}{3} \] ### Step 3: Multiply by -1 When we multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number, we must reverse the inequality sign: \[ x < \frac{23}{3} \] ### Step 4: Convert to decimal Calculating \( \frac{23}{3} \): \[ \frac{23}{3} \approx 7.67 \] ### Step 5: Identify the solution set Since \( x \) must be a positive integer, we consider all positive integers less than \( 7.67 \). The positive integers satisfying this condition are: \[ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 \] ### Final Solution Set Thus, the solution set for the inequality \( 8 - x > \frac{1}{3} \) where \( x \in \mathbb{Z}^+ \) is: \[ \{ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 \} \] ---
