Answer:

5x + 32 < 50

Step-by-step explanation:

On a particular airline, bags checked in must weigh less than 50 pounds. Betty packed 32 pounds of clothes and five gifts that weigh the same amount.

If each gift weighs w pounds, then the weight of five gifts will be 5w pounds and an additional 32 pounds of clothes will make it total (32 + 5w) pounds.  

Now, this total weight has to be less than 50 pounds.

Therefore, the inequality equation that can be used to find the possible weight of each gift, w is  

5x + 32 < 50 (Answer)

Two more examples of relationship patterns found in mathematics are <u>Geometric sequences</u><u> and </u><u>Fibonacci numbers</u>.

<h3>What are mathematical patterns?</h3>

Mathematical patterns are a sequence of repeated arrangements of numbers, shapes, colors, letters, etc.

Mathematical patterns are usually abstract.

<h3>What is a geometric sequence?</h3>

A geometric sequence is a sequence of non-zero numbers.  The first number is the product of multiplying a previous number by a fixed, non-zero number, called the common ratio.

A Geometric sequence may look like: 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, ..., where the common ratio is 2.

<h3>What is a Fibonacci sequence?</h3>

A Fibonacci number starts with a zero, followed by a one, then by another one, and then by a series of steadily increasing numbers.

The rule of the Fibonacci sequence is that each number is equal to the sum of the preceding two numbers, for example, 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13.

You need to write an essay that has at least 500 words. You have written 285 words so far. Write and solve an inequality that re
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

The minimum number of words left to write is 215

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

w -----> the number of words left to write

we know that

The number of words left to write plus the words written so far must be greater than or equal to 500 words

Remember that the word "at least" means "greater than or equal to"

w+285\geq 500

Solve for w

Subtract 285 both sides

w\geq 500-285\\w\geq 215

The minimum number of words left to write is 215
