Hi there! The answer is n = 6

Let's solve this problem step by step.


4n - 12 < 2n + 2
First subtract 2n from both sides.


2n - 12 < 2
Add 12 to both sides.


2n < 14
Divide by 2.


n < 7

Therefore, the only value of n from the set {6, 7, 8, 9} that holds true, would be n = 6 (since our value of n must be smaller than 7).
