Question

The sum of one third a number and 4 is at the most the sum of twice that number and 12

Answer 1

1/3x+4 ≤ 2x+12

Explanation:

x ≤ -24/5

Answer 2

4 +
`(1x)/(3)` ≤ 2x + 12.

Explanation:

Given : The sum of one third a number and 4 is at the most the sum of twice that number and 12.

To find : Write expression .

Solution : We have given statement

According to question :

Let the number = x

One third of a number =
`(1x)/(3)`.

Sum of one third of number and 4 = 4 +
`(1x)/(3)`.

Twice a number = 2x

Sum of twice that number and 12 = 2x + 12

So, sum of one third a number and 4 is at the most the sum of twice that number and 12.

4 +
`(1x)/(3)` ≤ 2x + 12.

greater than equal to sign for at most.

Therefore, 4 +
`(1x)/(3)` ≤ 2x + 12.
