Question

Solve and write as mixed number

2n > 9

Answer 1

To solve, we need to isolate the variable n on one side of the inequality.

First, we'll start by subtracting 2 from both sides:
2n - 2 > 9 - 2
2n > 7

Next, we'll divide both sides of the inequality by 2 to solve for n:
n > 7/2

Now we can convert the fraction 7/2 to a mixed number:

7 divided by 2 equals 3 with a remainder of 1.

Therefore, 7/2 can be written as the mixed number 3 1/2.

So the solution to the inequality 2n > 9 is:
n > 3 1/2
