a) x ≤ 147
b) x ≤ 8
c) x ≤ 8
d) x ≥ 50
Explanations:a) x cannot be more than 147
This means the value of x can be 147 and below
The inequality representing this statement is:
x ≤ 147
b) x is at least 1.47
This means that the minimum value x is 1.47. That is, it can either be 1.47 of more
The inequality representing this statement is:
x ≥ 1.47
c) The maximum number of hours you should sleep is 8 hours each night
x ≤ 8
d) Yael needs a minimum of 50 popsicles for her science project.
The minimum value of x is 50. This means that the number of popsicles can either be 50 or above
The inequality representing this expression is:
x ≥ 50
