 find the range or (ranges) of value x  can take for  x+6>[2x+3]

$$\:\mathrm{find}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{range}\:\mathrm{or}\:\left(\mathrm{ranges}\right)\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{value}\:\mathrm{x} \\ $$ $$\mathrm{can}\:\mathrm{take}\:\mathrm{for}\:\:\mathrm{x}+\mathrm{6}>\left[\mathrm{2x}+\mathrm{3}\right] \\ $$

do you mean x+6>∣2x+3∣ ?

$${do}\:{you}\:{mean}\:{x}+\mathrm{6}>\mid\mathrm{2}{x}+\mathrm{3}\mid\:? \\ $$

if 2x+3≥0, i.e. x≥−(3/2)  x+6>2x+3  x<3  ⇒−(3/2)≤x<3    if 2x+3<0, i.e. x<−(3/2)  x+6>−2x−3  3x>−9  x>−3  ⇒−3<x<−(3/2)    ⇒range of x:  −3<x<3

$${if}\:\mathrm{2}{x}+\mathrm{3}\geqslant\mathrm{0},\:{i}.{e}.\:{x}\geqslant−\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$ $${x}+\mathrm{6}>\mathrm{2}{x}+\mathrm{3} \\ $$ $${x}<\mathrm{3} \\ $$ $$\Rightarrow−\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{2}}\leqslant{x}<\mathrm{3} \\ $$ $$ \\ $$ $${if}\:\mathrm{2}{x}+\mathrm{3}<\mathrm{0},\:{i}.{e}.\:{x}<−\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$ $${x}+\mathrm{6}>−\mathrm{2}{x}−\mathrm{3} \\ $$ $$\mathrm{3}{x}>−\mathrm{9} \\ $$ $${x}>−\mathrm{3} \\ $$ $$\Rightarrow−\mathrm{3}<{x}<−\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$ $$ \\ $$ $$\Rightarrow{range}\:{of}\:{x}: \\ $$ $$−\mathrm{3}<{x}<\mathrm{3} \\ $$
