Answer 1

8 - x/6

Answer 2

8-(x/6)

Answer 3

I dislike the way they worded that.. 'the quotient of x divided by 6'

Answer 4

Also I disagree with the answers you all gave.

Answer 5

RIght- the minus 8 goes after

Answer 6

\[\Huge 8 < \frac{x}{6}\]

Answer 7

(x/6)-8

Answer 8

No saifoo. that's not right either.

Answer 9

Bigger is not more correct.

Answer 10

Awww. :(

Answer 11

The quotient of x and 6 is: (x/6)
8 less than that would be: (x/6) - 8

Answer 12

I love this person's user name... I feel like she's complimenting me XD

Answer 13

why wont it be that??

i meant this sign: <

Answer 14

Because it didn't state that it was an inequality. Inequalities use the < > signs.

Answer 15

If it were an inequality it would be:

8 is less than the quotient of x and 6.

But it was:

8 less than the quotient ...

No 'is' therefore not inequality.
