Full solution

Q. Solve for jj.\newline3(j1)7>23(j - 1) - 7 > 2
  1. Distribute 33 into parentheses: First, we need to simplify the left side of the inequality by distributing the 33 into the parentheses.3(j - 1) - 7 > 23j - 3 - 7 > 2
  2. Combine like terms: Next, we combine like terms on the left side by adding 3-3 and 7-7 together.3j - 10 > 2
  3. Isolate variable term: Now, we isolate the variable term by adding 1010 to both sides of the inequality.\newline3j - 10 + 10 > 2 + 10\newline3j > 12
  4. Solve for j: Finally, we solve for j by dividing both sides of the inequality by 33. \newline\frac{3j}{3} > \frac{12}{3}\newlinej > 4
