Twelve less than four-fifths of a number is more than 24. What are all the possible values of the number? Lucia wrote the inequality 45n−12>24 , where n equals the number, to help solve this problem. Solve her inequality.(1 point)

Question

n > 28.8
n > 15
n > 9.6
n > 45

Answer 1

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

Starting with 45n - 12 > 24, we first add 12 to both sides of the inequality:

45n - 12 + 12 > 24 + 12

This simplifies to:

45n > 36

Next, we divide both sides of the inequality by 45:

(45n)/45 > 36/45

This simplifies to:

n > 0.8

Therefore, the correct answer is n > 0.8. However, none of the given answer choices match this solution.

Answer 2

can you pick at least one of the given answers?

Answer 3

Sure, based on the given choices, n > 9.6 is the closest option to n > 0.8. However, it is important to note that n > 0.8 is the correct solution.
