Write a compound inequality that represents the following scenario:

Free Cone: On Tuesdays, the ice cream shop will give free single scoop cones, f , to people who are older than 65 or children 4 and under.

Question 2

Write a compound inequality that represents the following scenario:

Flavors: At any time, the ice cream shop will have at least 8 flavors and on Tuesdays they can offer up to 4 more extra flavors. Write the compound inequality to represent the number of flavors of ice cream on Tuesdays

Respuesta :

The compound inequality that represents the two following scenarios are:

  1. 65 < f ≤ 4
  2. 8 ≤ f ≤ 12

A compound inequality usually puts together two or more simple inequalities statements together.

Following the assumption from the given information that;

  • a free single scoop cone = f

1.

The age group of individuals designated to receive the free single scoop cones is:

  • people who are older than 65 i.e. > 65
  • children that are 4 or under 4 i.e. ≤ 4

Thus, the compound inequality that is appropriate to express both conditions is:

  • 65 < f ≤ 4

2.

  • On Tuesdays, the least amount of flavors = 8
  • The addition amount of extra flavors they can add = 4

Now, we can infer that the total amount of flavors = 8 + 4 = 12

Thus,  the compound inequality that is appropriate to express both conditions is:

  • Least amount of flavors ≤ f ≤ total amount of flavors  
  • 8 ≤ f ≤ 12

Therefore, we can conclude that the compound inequality that represents the two following scenarios are:

  1. 65 < f ≤ 4
  2. 8 ≤ f ≤ 12
