Answer:

  A: x = 2

  B: x < 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

Substitute the given value and solve for x.

  f(x) = 3(x +6)

  24 = 3(x +6)

  8 = x +6 . . . . . . divide by 3

  2 = x . . . . . . . . . subtract 6

Part B:

Eliminate parentheses, solve the 3-step inequality.

  2(x -4) > 4x -18

  2x -8 > 4x -18

  -8 > 2x -18 . . . . . . . subtract 2x

  10 > 2x . . . . . . . . . . add 18

   5 > x . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The solutions for x include any value less than 5.
