Twelve less than four-fifths of a number is more than 24. What are all the possible values of the number? Lucia wrote the inequality
4/5n - 12 > 24 where neguals the number. to help solve
this problem. Solve her inequality. (1 point)
O n > 45
O n> 15
O n > 9.6
O n > 28.8
To solve the inequality 4/5n - 12 > 24, we need to isolate the variable n.
First, add 12 to both sides of the inequality:
4/5n - 12 + 12 > 24 + 12
4/5n > 36
Next, multiply both sides of the inequality by the reciprocal of 4/5, which is 5/4:
(5/4)(4/5n) > (5/4)(36)
n > 45
Therefore, the correct solution is:
n > 45
So the possible values of the number are n > 45.
