Question

Write a compound inequality to represent the scenario. You'll need to bring at least $15 to the movies but you won't need more than $25. Let m represent the money brought to the movies

Answer 1

Answer:

15  ≤ m ≤ 25 is the required inequality.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m :  Represent the money brought to the movies.

Now, the money brought is at least $15.

So, the money brought is $15 or more than $15.

⇒ m ≥ 15  ........  (1)

Similarly,  the money brought is not more than $25.

So, the money brought is $25 or less than $25.

⇒ m ≤ 25  ........  (2)

Combining equation (1) and (2) , we get

       15  ≤ m ≤ 25

Hence,  15  ≤ m ≤ 25 is the required inequality.
