Four times a number increased by one is between a negative seven and thirteen. Find all numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

four times the number:

4x

If the exprression is increased by 1, it will become:

4x+1

If the value is between -7 and 13, the value of x will be within the range [-6, 12]

Equating the resulting expression to each end point.

At end point of -6

4x+1 = -6

4x = -6-1

4x = -7

x = -7/4

At the end point of 12:

4x+1 = 12

4x = 12-1

4x = 11

x = 11/4

Hence all the numbers will be within the range [-7/4, 11/4] or -7/4≤x≤11/4
