Fifteen less than four times a number is more than 49. What are all the possible values of the number? Write an inequality that could be used to solve this problem. Use the letter x as your variable and write your x term first.(1 point

Answer 1

To translate the statement "Fifteen less than four times a number is more than 49" into an inequality, we start by expressing "four times a number" as \(4x\).

Next, "Fifteen less than four times a number" is represented as \(4x - 15\).

Now, we can express the information that this expression is "more than 49" using the inequality:

\[ 4x - 15 > 49 \]

This inequality can be solved to find the possible values of \(x\).
