Answer:


0<4x+8<12

Explanation:

The sum of four times a number and eight is between zero and twelve

For example : x is between a and b can be written as a<x<b

Now we frame inequality for the given statement

Sum of four times a number and eight

LEt the unknown number be x

four times a number is 4x

Sum of 4x and 8 is
4x+8

4x+8 lies between 0 and 12. So the inequality becomes


0<4x+8<12
