Answer 1

To complete the inequality based on the problem statement "Fifteen less than four times a number is more than 49," we can translate this into an expression step by step.

1. Let the number be represented by \( x \).
2. Four times a number: \( 4x \).
3. Fifteen less than four times a number: \( 4x - 15 \).
4. The expression is more than 49, which means we will use the greater than sign (>).

Putting it all together, the inequality is:

\[ 4x - 15 > 49 \]

So, the complete inequality you are looking for is: \[ 4x - 15 > 49 \]
