The problem is asking us to find the possible values of a number when the sum of that number and three-fourths of it is less than 112.
To solve this, we can represent the number with the variable x. The sum of 11 and three-fourths of the number can be expressed as:
11 + (3/4)x
The inequality we can write to represent the given condition is:
11 + (3/4)x < 112
The sum of 11 and three-fourths of a number is less than 112. 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 the variable, and write the inequality so that the x term comes first. Where necessary, write numbers as fractions (rather than decimals). Do not solve the inequality.Note: You will find the option to add a >, <, ≥, or ≤symbol in the Comparison (<)keyboard.(1 point)
can you explain it in simpler terms please
