Question

5 subtracted from w is less than or equal to 16Translate this into an inequality

Answer 1

The first part of this sentence, "5 subtracted from w", can be written as:

w - 5

Now, to express the relation "less than or equal", we use the symbol:

≤

And the last part of the sentence, "16", continues the same.

Then, joining those three parts, we obtain the inequality:

w - 5 ≤ 16
