Three tenths more than the product of -4 and a number less than 11.98. what could the number be?

Any number greater than -2.92 will satisfy the above condition.

One possible number could be -2 as -2 > -2.92.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be 'x'.

Given:

Three-tenths more than the product of -4 and the unknown number is less than 11.98.

Therefore, framing the above in equation form we get

Producto -4 and 'x' is

Three-tenths more than is

Now, the above expression is less than 11.98. So,

Solving for 'x', we add - both sides,

Now, dividing both sides by -4 will reverse the inequality sign. Therefore,

Therefore, any number greater than -2.92 will satisfy the above condition.

So, one possible number could be -2 as -2 > -2.92.

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
