\"\"

\

Let n is an unknown number.

\

The word \"\"two thirds of a number n added to six\"\" represents \"\".

\

The word \"\"is at least\"\" represents \"\".

\

The word \"\"Two thirds of a number n added to six is at least twenty - two\"\" represents \"\".\"\"

\

The inequality is \"\".

\

Apply subtraction property of inequality: If \"\".

\

Subtract 6 from each side.

\

\"\"

\

\"\"

\

Apply multiplication property of inequality: If \"\".

\

Multiply each side by \"\".

The solution set is \"\".\"\"

\

Check:

\

To check, substitute three different values for n into the original inequality: 24, a number less than 24, and greater than 24.

\

Let three values are \"\".

\

If \"\" then \"\" (This is false)

\

If \"\" then \"\" (This is true)

\

If \"\" then \"\" (This is true).\"\"

\

The inequality is \"\" and the solution set is \"\".
