fifteen less than four times a number is more than 49 what are all the possible values of the number

1 answer

Let's call the number x.

According to the problem statement, we know that:

4x - 15 > 49

To find the possible values of x, we need to isolate it on one side of the inequality. So, we add 15 to both sides:

4x > 64

Now, we divide both sides by 4:

x > 16

Therefore, any number greater than 16 is a possible value for x.
