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

X = [-(-8) +/- sqrt((-8)^2 -4*41)] / 2  
x =  ( 8 + sqrt (-100) / 2  and  (8 - sqrt(-100) / 2
