Question

This equation shows how the amount of jelly Austin has left is related to the number of sandwiches he makes.

Answer 1

Answer:

Austin can only make 1 sandwich.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you plug 1 in for s and add 8, you get j=2. Anything more than 1 for s -- so any more than 1 sandwich -- would be less than 2 ounces of jelly remaining.

Answer 2

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of jelly Austin has left should be at least 2 oz.

$-6s+8 \ge 2 \\ -6s \ge -6$

Divide by -6 remembering to flip the inequality sign -- you're dividing by a negative number!

$s \le 1$

Austin can make up to 1 sandwich.
