Question

List 3 values that would make the inequality true 48 < 6n

Answer 1

Answer: Three values of 'n' are 9, 10 and 11.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to list three values that would make the following inequality TRUE:

`48<6n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)`

We have to find three values of the unknown quantity 'n' that that inequality (i) is true.

First, we have to solve the inequality (i).

The solution is as follows:

`48<6n\\\\\Rightarrow 6n>48\\\\\Rightarrow n>(48)/(6)\\\\\Rightarrow n>8.`

So, the three values of 'n' are 9, 10 and 11.

Answer 2

The inequality:
48 < 6 n
6 n > 48
n > 48 : 6
n > 8
Answer: n = { 9, 10, 11 } ( 3 values )
We can prove this: 48 < 6*9 or 48 < 54, 48 < 60, 48 < 66
