x>$6.

We know Olivia had $36 allocated for the purchase and she had less than $12 remaining. If we subtract the amount remaining from the allocated amount, we can find the total amount spent on the journals.

$36 - $12 = $24

Since Olivia bought 4 journals, we can divide the total amount spent by the number of journals to find the cost of each journal.

$24 / 4 = $6

Therefore, the cost of each journal, represented by x, is greater than $6.
