Answer

Final Answer: \(\boxed{x > 6}\)

Steps

Step 1 :Start with the inequality \(3x - 4 > -x + 20\).

Step 2 :Add x to both sides of the inequality to get \(4x - 4 > 20\).

Step 3 :Add 4 to both sides of the inequality to get \(4x > 24\).

Step 4 :Divide both sides of the inequality by 4 to isolate x, resulting in \(x > 6\).

Step 5 :So the solution to the inequality is \(x > 6\). This means that any number greater than 6 is a solution to the inequality.

Step 6 :Final Answer: \(\boxed{x > 6}\)
