s = t + 4
this means that what ever t is, s is 4 greater than t.
Thus s > t.
This reminds me of the time that
I had to prove that
if a < b then
a + c < b + c.
It took me a long time to figure out what I could use in the proof that was even simpler than what I had been asked to prove.
a < b means that b - a is a positive number.
The sum of two positive numbers is positive.
Suppose that a < b.
Now from this we prove that a + c < b + c as follows.
(b + c ) - (a + c ) = b + c - a - c = b - a + c - c = b - a + 0
= b - a which is a positive number because a < b.
(b + c) - (a + c) is a positive number.
Hence (a + c) < (b + c)

/1/ suppose s
/3/ suppose s>t, now subtract 2 equals off both sides, then s-s>t-t-4 or 0>-4: true!

s exceeds t by 4 so s > t.

Think about what happens when t=0.

s is equal to t, plus 4 more.
s is more than t.

Not really sure what you're getting at. The only thing one can say is s>t. How about s=s>t
