Which Of These Inequalities Means That 18 Is Greater Than Three Times A Number class=

Sagot :

hello!

Let's write this verbal phrase as an inequality.

First of all, let the number be n.

"three times n" can be written like so:-

[tex]\pmb{3n}[/tex]

Now, 18 is greater than 3n:-

[tex]\pmb{18 > 3n}[/tex]

Which means 3n is less than 18:-

[tex]\bigstar{\boxed{\pmb{3n < 18}}}[/tex]
