Question

42. Carmen spends 5 minutes, correct to the nearest minute, preparing one meal. She spends a total time

Answer 1

Answer:

4.5 < T < 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Nearest 5 minutes could be 4.5 to 5.49

The computation of the limits in between is shown below:

Now Multiply these numbers by 30

4.5 × 30 = 135

5.4 × 30 = 162

5.5 × 30 = 165

We can easily round 5.5 would to 6, since we cannot use 5.5.  

Therefore  

135 < T < 162

Therefore If the correct answer is  135 < T < 165

So it must be 4.5 < T < 5.5
