Solution
We will start evaluating the given exprssion (n2 > 3n + 4) by putting all the given options one by one into the expression and then we will see the output.
1. 6
So when we replace n=6 in our expression, let\'s see what we get.
62 > 3*6 +4 --> 36 > 18 +4 --> 36> 22
the above equation stands true as 36 is greater than 22.
2. 5
So when we replace n=5 in our expression, let\'s see what we get.
52 > 3*5 +4 --> 25 > 15 +4 --> 25> 19
the above equation stands true as 25 is greater than 19.
3. 4
So when we replace n=4 in our expression, let\'s see what we get.
42 > 3*4 +4 --> 16 > 12 +4 --> 16> 16
the above equation stands false as 16 is not greater than 16 but it is equal to 16.
4. 3
So when we replace n=3 in our expression, let\'s see what we get.
32 > 3*3 +4 --> 9 > 9 +4 --> 9> 13
the above equation stands false as 9 is not greater than 13.
So as we saw, the above equation stands true onlt for 2 conditions where n=6 and n=5.
And smaller of them is 5.
So the answer is 5.
