Problem

If a "solution set" is the set of all numbers which satisfy a statement, which is the solution set of $2x+4>16?$

$\text{(A)} \quad x>6 \quad \text{(B)} \quad x=6 \quad \text{(C)} \quad x=-6 \quad \text{(D)} \quad x<6 \quad \text{(E) NOTA}$

Solution

We can solve: $2x> 12 \rightarrow \quad \boxed{\text{(A)} \quad x>6}$
