Question

You need to make at least 360 wraps for a party. You can make 9 wraps per minute.

Answer 1

Answer:

40 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

What the person above/below me is saying, is you have to divide 360 and 9, to find x! X=40, 360/9=40! That's what they mean. I hope this helped you understand their answer!

Answer 2

It will take 40 minutes for me to make the 360 wraps that I need.

9x ≥ 360 ⇒ x ≥ 40

Step-by-step explanation:

I have to make at least 360 wraps for a party.

I can make 9 wraps per minute.

So, it will take minutes for me to make the 360 wraps that I need.

If I work for x minutes to make wraps, then I will be able to make 9x wraps.

So, the inequality that models the given condition is

9x ≥ 360

⇒ x ≥ 40 {Dividing both sides by 9}

Therefore, I need to work at least 40 minutes to reach my goal. (Answer)
