Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the number of males in the classroom is three more than twice the number of females.
the total number of students is 57
Let x be the no of males then no of females =
Also we have 3 more than twice no of females as
This equals x
No of males = 39, no of females = 18
In order to solve this inequality, we should divide both sides by 9:-
Why 9? Because x is multiplied by 9, and we need to isolate x in order to find its value.
Hence, that's the solution to the inequality.
<em>It also means that the numbers less than 8 will satisfy the given inequality (make the inequality true)</em>
(Option C is correct :) )
