Question

Forty is no greater than the difference of a number and 2

Answer 1

40 (< or equal to) x-2 i think

Answer 2

This can be written as:

`40 \leq n - 2`

"No greater than" does not necessarily mean less than, but it just means it cannot go over. So equal to or less than.

"The difference of a number and 2" can be represented as "n - 2"

If you were to solve this inequality, you would end up getting:

`42 \leq n` or
`n \geq 42`

Hope this helps! :)
