Step-by-step explanation:
c >= 2
that means any value of c greater or equal to 2 is a valid solution. so, yes, 2 is a solution for this.
c < 2
that means any value of c smaller than 2 is a valid solution. so, no, 2 is not smaller than 2, so it is not a solution.
c < 3
that means any value of c smaller than 3 is a valid solution. so, yes, 2 is smaller than 3, so 2 is a solution.
3 < c
that means any value of c, for that 3 is smaller, is a valid solution. our in other words, any value for c larger than 3 is a valid solution. so, no, 2 is not larger than 3, so it is not a solution.
-8 < c
that means any value of c, for that -8 is smaller, is a valid solution. our in other words, any value for c larger than -8 is a valid solution. so, yes, 2 is larger than -8, so it is a solution.
For us to find out how many times more expensive is the deli roast compared to the uncooked roast we need to change the units;
cost of 100g=0.221lb is $2.99
cost of 1 lb will therefore be:
1/0.221*2.99
=$13.53/lb
therefore the number of times more expensive the deli roast is compared to uncooked roast is:
[price of 1lb roasted meat]/[price of 1 lb uncooked meat]
=13.53/4.99
=2.7 times
