To determine which of the numbers is a solution of the inequality 24 - x < 12, we can substitute each number into the inequality and see if it holds true.
1. Substitute x = 11:
24 - 11 < 12
13 < 12
This statement is false, so 11 is not a solution.
2. Substitute x = 12:
24 - 12 < 12
12 < 12
This statement is also false, so 12 is not a solution.
3. Substitute x = 13:
24 - 13 < 12
11 < 12
This statement is true, so 13 is a solution.
Therefore, the number 13 is the only solution to the inequality 24 - x < 12.
Which of the numbers 11, 12, and 13 is a solution of 24-x<12
