Which of the following (1, 16, 27, 81) is not a square number?
i think the question is not correct write it again or attach the pic ic
J/4 - 8 < 4
<u> + 8 + 8 </u> *add 8 to both sides to cancel -8.
j/4 < 12
<u>*4/1 *4/1 </u> *multiply 4/1 to both sides to cancel 1/4
j < 48
j should be less than 48 to make the inequality true.
example: j = 47
j/4 - 8 < 4
47/4 - 8 < 4
11.75 - 8 < 4
3.75 < 4
Any number below 48 will end up with an answer less than 4. if j is 48 and above, the inequality is false because the answer arrived at will be equal to or greater than 4.
