Question

For more than three times a number is greater than 22

Answer 1

Four more than three times a number is greater than 22

3x + 4 > 22

Answer 2

If we let the number be n,

expression: 3n + 4 > 22

solution: n > 6

Explanation:

let the number be n

"three times a number" : 3n

"four more than three times a number" : 3n + 4

"is greater than 22" : 3n + 4 > 22

if you are being asked to solve for n,

3n + 4 > 22 (subtract 4 from both sides)

3n > 22-4

3n > 18 (divide both sides by 3)

n > 18/3

n > 6
