Solve this problem by writing and solving an inequality five more than four times a number is less than 25 what are the possible values of the number show your work
Let's assume the number is represented by the variable x.
The problem states that "five more than four times a number (x) is less than 25". We can translate this into an inequality:
5 + 4x < 25
Let's solve for x:
4x < 20
x < 20/4
x < 5
Therefore, the possible values of the number x are any values less than 5.
