Tatiana wants to give friendship bracelets to her 32 classmates. She already has 5 bracelets, and she can buy more bracelets in packages of 4. Let ppp represent the number of packages. Write an inequality to determine the number of packages Tatiana needs to buy. What is the minimum whole number of packages Tatiana needs to buy? packages

Respuesta :

5+4b≥32
7 Packages of bracelets.

Solve It
5+4b
≥32
subtract 5 from both sides
4b
≥27
divide 4 on both sides
b
≥6.75

Since you can't buy a half packet you round up to 7

The minimum number of packages Tatiana needs to buy and its inequality is required.

The inequality is [tex]4p+5\geq 32[/tex]

The minimum whole number packages she needs to buy is 7.

Number of bracelets Tatiana has = 5

Number of classmates = 32

One package has 4 bracelets.

The inequality will be

[tex]4p+5\geq 32[/tex]

Solving the inequality

[tex]4p\geq 32-5\\\Rightarrow p\geq \dfrac{32-5}{4}\\\Rightarrow p\geq 6.75[/tex]

Since, the exact number of packages is 6.75 the whole number packages is 7.
