"Twenty-eight is more than four times another number" can be shown by the inequality 28 > 4n. what are all possible values of n?

Answer 1

To solve the inequality \( 28 > 4n \), we first rearrange it to isolate \( n \).

1. Divide both sides by 4: \[ \frac{28}{4} > n \] This simplifies to: \[ 7 > n \] or equivalently, \[ n < 7 \]

Thus, the possible values of \( n \) are all real numbers less than 7. In interval notation, this can be expressed as:

\[ (-\infty, 7) \]

So, all possible values of \( n \) are \( n < 7 \).
