Real world scenarios can be represented by inequalities, and vice versa.
The inequality is given as:
[tex]300 - 15x < 200[/tex]
A possible scenario is as follows
How long will it take the number of people in a train station to be less than 200, if there are currently 300 people at the station, and 15 people leave the station every minute.
In the above scenario;
x represents the number of minutes
Since 15 people leave each minute, then 15x people would have left after x minutes.
The initial population is given as 300.
So, the current population after x minutes is 300 - 15x.
The current population is to be less than 200.
So, we have:
[tex]300 - 15x < 200[/tex]
