Answer:
Please check the explanation.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the English statement
''The sum of two and number is less than five''.
Let us breakdown the statement.
- The sum of two and number = 2 + n
We know that the less than symbol is denoted by '<' which is used for comparison.
Thus, the statement 'The sum of two and a number is less than five' is algebraically represented as:
Let us solve the algebraic expression.
[tex]2+n<5[/tex]
Subtract 2 from both sides
[tex]2+n-2<5-2[/tex]
Simplify
[tex]n<3[/tex]
Thus, the solution is:
[tex]2+n<5\quad :\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:n<3\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:\left(-\infty \:,\:3\right)\end{bmatrix}[/tex]
