Question

Writing inequalities four more than three times a number, is greater than twenty two

Answer 1

Let the number be y,

From the question, the equation can be written thus;

`3y+4>22`

The next step is to subtract 4 from both sides;

`\begin{gathered} 3y>22-4 \\ 3y>18 \end{gathered}`

We'll then have to divide both sides by 3;

`\begin{gathered} (3y)/(3)>(18)/(3) \\ y>6 \end{gathered}`
