Yannick and Jean are playing a guessing game with integers. Yannick wrote these clues to help Jean guess the unknown integer.n−3≥7 and n+5<16 What is the value of the unknown integer, n?(1 point)Responsesn=11n is equal to 11n=10n is equal to 10n=23n is equal to 23n=9

1 answer

To find the value of the unknown integer \( n \), we need to solve the inequalities provided:

  1. For the first inequality: \[ n - 3 \geq 7 \] Adding 3 to both sides gives: \[ n \geq 10 \]

  2. For the second inequality: \[ n + 5 < 16 \] Subtracting 5 from both sides gives: \[ n < 11 \]

Now we combine the results from both inequalities:

  • From the first inequality, we have \( n \geq 10 \).
  • From the second inequality, we have \( n < 11 \).

Combining these gives: \[ 10 \leq n < 11 \]

The only integer that satisfies this condition is: \[ n = 10 \]

Thus, the value of the unknown integer \( n \) is \( 10 \).

The correct response is: n is equal to 10.
