Answer:
6x - 5 ≥ 8
Explanation:
Let that number be " x ".
The product of a number and six,
x * 6 = 6x
Five less than the prod.uct of a number and six,
6x - 5
Five less than the prod.uct of a number and six is at least eight,
This means,
6x - 5 = 8
As well as,
6x - 5 > 8
Both combined,
6x - 5 ≥ 8
Hence, translated.
Note : -
Since the word " at least " is given in the question, we use " ≥ ".
Lem.me also solve this and find the value of x.
6x - 5 ≥ 8
Add 5 on both sides,
6x ≥ 8 + 5
6x ≥ 13
Divide 6 on both sides,
x ≥ 13/6
(The value of x isn't asked in the question, but may find this helpful).
