Algebra Difficulty 1.1 Junior Find the answer Canada

How many integer values of xx
satisfy the inequality 2<x<142<x<14?

Pick one

Solution

The integer values of xx that
satisfy the inequality 2 lt;x lt;14\text{2 lt;x lt;14}
are the integers between 33 and
1313, inclusive, and so there are
13−3+1=1113-3+1=11 such integers.
