Given the inequality statement:
Six times a number is at least four less than eight times the number.
Determine the inequality equation to find the number.
Explanation:
Six times a number means we're gonna multiply 6 to x, then we're gonna put a less than sign in the middle of the equation, since it is stated that the number is " at least ", which also means less than, four less than eight times the number.
6x < 8x - 4
Final answer:
6x < 8x - 4
