Answer:

[tex]40<x-2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Forty is no greater than the difference of a number and 2

Let x be the unknown number

difference of the number and 2 means we subtract 2 from the unknown number.

difference of the number and 2 is x-2

Forty is no greater than x-2

40 is no greater than x-2 means 40 is less than x-2

[tex]40<x-2[/tex]
