Question

Ben has agreed to play fewer video games and spend more time studying. He has agreed to play less than 10 hours of video games each week. On Monday through Thursday, he plays video games for a total of 5 1/2 hours. For the remaining 3 days, he plays video games for the same amount of time each day. Find t, the amount of time he plays video games, for each of the 3 days.

Answer 1

Answer:

t < 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Mon-Thu: 5.5 hours

each of the remaining 3 days: t hours each day

total time: 3t + 5.5

The total time must be less than 10 hours.

3t + 5.5 < 10

3t < 4.5

t < 1.5
