Answer:

solving the inequality we get
x < 14

Explanation:

We need to solve the inequality A number times two is less than 20 + 8

Let the number be x

The inequality will be:

2x < 20+8

Now solving the inequality to find the value of x


2x < 20+8\\2x < 28\\x<(28)/(2)\\x<14

So, solving the inequality we get
x < 14

In figure a I am attaching the number line for solution.

In figure b I am attaching the graph for solution.

Which correctly represents this inequality? A number times two is less than 20 + 8. PLS-example-1
