Set 7: Linear Inequalities (Advanced)

Choice A is correct. Choice A is the correct answer. Solve both and find the overlap. 1. First: $2x > 8 \rightarrow x > 4$ 2. Second: $x - 3 < 4 \rightarrow x < 7$ 3. Combined: $4< x < 7$ 4. Test Choices: We need a number strictly between 4 and 7. Only 5 works. Strategic Tip: "And" means the value must satisfy BOTH conditions simultaneously. Choice B is incorrect because 4 is not greater than 4 (boundary). Choice C is incorrect because 7 is not less than 7 (boundary). Choice D is incorrect because 3 is not greater than 4.
