-BARSIC- [3]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The Answer is: the Number is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n = the number.

Five times the number minus 10 is less than 6 times the number minus eight:

5n - 10 = 6n - 8

-1n = -8 + 10

-n = 2

n = -2, the value of the number is -2.

Proof:

5(-2) - 10 = 6(-2) - 8

-10 - 10 = -12 - 8

-20 = -20

Hope this helps! Have an Awesome Day!! :-)
