Question 3.
Solve the following inequations.
(i) 4 – x > -2, x ∈ N
(ii) 3x + 1 ≤ 8, x ∈ W
Also represent their solutions on the number line.
Solution:
(i) Given, 4 – x > -2
Subtract 4 from both sides
⇒ -4 + 4 – x > -2 – 4 – x > -6
⇒ x < 6 (Reverse the symbols)
As x ∈ N, the solution set = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

(ii) Given 3x + 1 ≤ 8.
Subtracting -1 from both sides,
3x + 1 – 1 ≤ 8 – 1
3x ≤ 7
Dividing both sides by 3
⇒ x ≤ \(\frac { 7 }{ 3 }\)
As x = W, the solution set = {0, 1, 2}

Question 4.
Solve 3 – 4x < x – 12, x ∈ {-1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}.
Solution:
Given 3 – 4x < x – 12
Subtracting 3 from both sides
⇒ -3 + 3 – 4x < x – 12 – 3
⇒ -4x < x – 15
Subtracting x from both sides
⇒ -4x – x < x – x – 15
⇒ -5x < -15 ⇒ x > 3
(Dividing by – 5 and reverse the symbols)
As x ∈ {-1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
The solution set = {4, 5, 6, 7}

Question 5.
Solve -7 < 4x + 1 ≤ 23, x ∈ I.
Solution:
Given, -7 < 4x + 1 ≤ 23.
We take -7 < 4x + 1 ≤ 23.
Subtracting -1 from all sides,
-7 – 1 < 4x + 1 – 1 ≤ 23 – 1
-8 < 4x ≤ 22
\(\frac { -8 }{ 4 }\) < \(\frac { 4x }{ 4 }\) ≤ \(\frac { 22 }{ 4 }\) (Dividing by 4)
-2 < x ≤ 5.5
As x ∈ I, the solution set = {-1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5}.
