The inequality is used to solve how many hours of television Julia can still watch this week is x + 1.5 \leq 5

The remaining hours of TV Julia can watch this week can be expressed is 3.5 hours

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that Julia is allowed to watch no more than 5 hours of television a week

So far this week, she has watched 1.5 hours

To find: number of hours Julia can still watch this week

<em>Let "x" be the number of hours Julia can still watch television this week</em>

"no more than 5" means less than or equal to 5 ( ≤  5 )

Juila has already watched 1.5 hours. So we can add 1.5 hours and number of hours Julia can still watch television this week which is less than or equal to 5 hours

number of hours Julia can still watch television this week + already watched ≤ Total hours Juila can watch

x + 1.5 \leq5

Thus the above inequality is used to solve how many hours of television Julia can still watch this week.

Solving the inequality,

x + 1.5 \leq5\\\\x \leq 5 - 1.5\\\\x \leq 3.5

Thus Julia still can watch Television for 3.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5 of 1 hour = 20 minutes

25% + 20% = 45%

0.35 = 35%

45% + 35% = 80%

Answer = 20%
