While training for a marathon, Sean runs at least 28 miles a week. He has already ran 6 miles this week. The inequality shown can be used to find m, the number of miles Sean still needs to run this week. m + 6 ≥ 28 Which inequality represents the solution set for this situation? A) m ≥ 22 B) m ≤ 22 C) m ≤ 34 D) m ≥ 34
Accepted Solution
A:
That would be B ) m >= 22
Explanation : Just l like a normal equation , we need to isolate the variable to get its value. We can do that by simply substracting 6 from both sides of the equation : m + 6 >= 28 m + 6 - 6 >= 28 - 6 6 - 6 cancel out so we end up with m >= 22
