Solve the inequality: \(4 < n + 2\).

First, solve the inequality for \(n\):

1. Subtract 2 from both sides:
\[
4 - 2 < n + 2 - 2
\]
\[
2 < n
\]

In words, the solution to the inequality \(4 < n + 2\) is that \(n\) must be greater than 2.

4<n+2 |subtract 2 4-2<n 2<n Solution is n in(2,+infinity)

The solution to the inequality 4 < n + 2 is 2"> n > 2 , meaning n can be any number greater than 2. In interval notation, this is represented as ( 2 , + ∞ ) . Examples of valid solutions include 3 , 4 , 5 , and so on.
