can you explain to me? instead of just saying "no, you're wrong" i want to know my mistake, and learn from it. Thank you
Both of your answers are right.
fifty-two less than three times n
Sure! I'd be happy to explain the answers to these questions.
1. What number is a solution of the inequality m > 13/3?
Option b. 5 is correct.
In order to find the solution to the inequality m > 13/3, we need to find a number that is greater than 13/3. The fraction 13/3 is approximately 4.33. So, any number greater than 4.33 will satisfy the inequality.
Among the options provided, only 5 is greater than 4.33. Therefore, option b. 5 is the correct answer.
2. Write the inequality in words: 3n < 52.
Option b. Three times n is less than fifty-two is correct.
In order to write the inequality 3n < 52 in words, you need to describe it accurately. The inequality 3n < 52 means that when you multiply 3 by some number n, the result is less than 52.
Among the options provided, option b. Three times n is less than fifty-two accurately represents the meaning of the inequality, so it is the correct answer.
It's important to pay attention to the details of the problem and the specific mathematical notation used in order to choose the correct answer. Keep practicing and asking questions to continue improving your understanding!
