Answer 1

Question is Incomplete,Complete Question is given below;

Joaquin can send 250 text each month so far this month he has sent 141 text message let T represent the number of text messages Joaquin can send during the rest of the month. Write an inequality to model the situation. Solve the inequality for t.

Answer:

The Inequality modelling the situation is $141+t\leq 250$.

Joaquin can send at the most 109 messages for the remaining of the month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of messages already sent = 141

Total number of messages he can send = 250

We need to write the inequality to model the situation and solve for the same.

Solution:

Let remaining number of messages he can send be 't'.

Now we know that;

Number of messages already sent plus remaining number of messages he can send should be less than or equal to Total number of messages he can send.

framing in equation form we get;

$141+t\leq 250$

Hence The Inequality modelling the situation is $141+t\leq 250$.

On Solving the above equality we will find the value of 't'.

Now we will subtract both side by 141 using subtraction property of inequality we get;

$141+t-141\leq 250-141\\\\t\leq 109$

Hence Joaquin can send at the most 109 messages for the remaining of the month.
