Question

Determine which integer makes the inequality 6(n − 5) < 3(n + 4) true.

S:{11}
S:{14}
S:{30}
S:{42}

Answer 1

S: {11}

Explanation:

Hello!

Solve the inequality for n by isolating the variable.

Solve for n

• 6(n − 5) < 3(n + 4)
• 6n - 30 < 3n + 12
• 3n - 30 < 12
• 3n < 42
• n < 14

The solution for n is all values less than 14, so 11 would work.
