is younger than him. Mateo writes
the inequality b > 41, where b equals
the number of years, to represent
his brother's age. Is Mateo correct?

Answer 1

No, Mateo is not correct because he is older than his brother which would make 41 a greater value than b. The correct statement would be ‘b < 41’.
