Question

Renata and her family go through an average of more than 15 cans of sparkling water each day. They buy cases of 24 cans at $3.50 a case. Write an inequality for the number of cases they go through in 30 days. ​

Answer 1

Answer: The inequality required to express the above condition is   x     ≥    18.75

Step-by-step explanation:Renata and her family go through an average of more than 15 cans of sparkling water each day.

The number of cases of 24 cans of sparkling water.

We can take the number of cases to be x.

Each case is said to cost $3.50.

An inequality for the number of cases that Renata's family go through in 24 days can be written as

      x ≥            ⇒     x    ≥            ⇒   x ≥     18.75

Therefore the inequality required to express the above condition is

x     ≥    18.75
