Question

The sum of a number and 81 is greater than the product of -3 and that number. What are the possible values for the number? (Please help quickly)

Answer 1

Answer: Yeah what the guy above me said.

Explanation:

Answer 2

(81+n)>(-3n)
This is the equation
Now plug in possibilities
Anything positive in n will be a negative on the right and that will always be less than the left side

But you put a negative on the left and it will be positive and also will minus from the right

So -1 will work because 80>3

So -2 will work because 79>6

So -3 will work because 78>9

So -4 will work because 77>12

So -5 will work because 76>15

So -6 will work because 75>18

But you see at some point this will not be a true statement so then you answer will be these negative numbers and all positive numbers
