Question 1(Multiple Choice Worth 1 points)

(01.04 MC)

The Lamaster family is a family of five people. They have used 4,885.78 gallons of water so far this month. They cannot exceed 7,250.50 gallons per month during drought season. Write an inequality to show how much water just one member of the family can use for the remainder of the month, assuming each family member uses the same amount of water every month.

5x − 4,885.78 ≤ 7,250.50
5x + 4,885.78 ≤ 7,250.50
5x − 4,885.78 ≥ 7,250.50
5x + 4,885.78 ≥ 7,250.50

Respuesta :

so, they already used 4,885.78 this month, but whatever all five family members can use total for a month is 7,250.50, so since they already used 4,885.78, they have left 7,250.50 - 4,885.78 = 2364.72.

The inequality that shows the amount of water for each member is 5x + 4885.78 ≤ 7250.50

Inequality

Inequality is an expression that is used to show the non equal comparison of two or more numbers and variables.

Let x represent the amount of water that each family member can use for the remainder of the month.

Therefore:

5x + 4885.78 ≤ 7250.50

The inequality that shows the amount of water for each member is 5x + 4885.78 ≤ 7250.50
