Question

Create an inequality that represents the verbal description below

Answer 1

That would be

10x > 4x - 2

Answer 2

Answer:

The inequality is $10x>4x-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the statement,

'The product of ten and a number is greater than the difference of four times the number and 2'.

Let the number be x. So, we have,

Product of ten and the number = $10x$

Four time the number = $4x$

Difference of four times the number and 2 = $4x-2$

Thus, according to the statement,

Product of ten and the number > Difference of four times the number and 2

i.e. $10x>4x-2$

So, the inequality is $10x>4x-2$.
