Which of the following inequalities can be used to determine the number of hours, t, after 7 a.m. when the power usage on campus will be less than or equal to 100,000?A.
15,040(0.79)t ≤ 100,000
B.
15,040(1.79)t ≤ 100,000

Answer:

D. 15,040(1.21)t ≤ 100,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The 15,040 is the prior electricity, and it increases by .21 per hour, and you don't want 100,000

To make an equation, use the simple interest formula (same concept)

Total = Amount(1 + rate) time

fill it out

100,000 >= 15,040(1.21)t

This equation is the same as D so D is the answer

vitfil [10]
He spoke to each friends for 26 minutes

How I found out : how I found out is that all you have to do it get the total amount which in this question it is going to be 182. And you would need to dive 182 by 7 to find the unit rate (182/7) which is going to equal 26.which means he called each friend for 26 minutes
