The numbers of passengers that need to be booked to ensure the cruise line makes a profit, using a compound inequality is x ≥ 2,052 and x ≤ 2,462.
<h3>How to illustrate the inequality?</h3>
From the information given, we are told that the cruise ship needs to book at least 2,052 passengers to be profitable, but the most passengers the ship can accommodate is 2,462.
Learn x be the number of people that can be accommodated. Therefore, the model is x ≥ 2,052 and x ≤ 2,462.
The square root of a number is a number that you can square to get it, that is, a number that you can multiply by itself to get the number. So, 2 is a square root of 4, because 2 x 2 = 4, and 3 is a square root of 9, because 3 x 2 = 9.
