You need to visualize this first. This in an equation would be 4+2x<-18. You first subtract -4 to both sides. This would give you 2x<-22. Then you divide both sides by 2 to get x<-11. So any number less than -11 would work. This means that -12, -13, -14 and soon would work for x
The numbers that make the given statement true will be all the numbers that are less than -11.
Let the number be represented by x
The statement "Four more than twice a number is less than negative eighteen".can then be rewritten as:
(2 × x) + 4 < -18
2x + 4 < -18
Collect like terms
2x < -18 - 4
2x < -22
Divide both side by 2
2x/2 < -22/2
x < -11
Therefore, the numbers that make the given statement true will be all the numbers that are less than -11.
