Reggie is planning to visit a clients office. He is taking a plane to get there, and the flight is scheduled to take five hours.
But the flight will be delayed by more than an hour because of bad weather. Reggie wants to call the airport hotel until the hotel manager when he will be arriving at the hotel. The variable X gives the elapsed time between ready schedule departure and his arrival at the hotel. Write an inequality for X, the time that passes between Reggie schedule departure in his arrival at the hotel.
Reggie’s flight time is 5 hours and he expects a delay of more than an hour, so he should tell the manager to expect him at least 6 hours after his scheduled departure. The inequality is given by x > 6.
