Inequality

Question

Lina bought 4 smoothies at a health food store. The bill was less than $16. Write an inequality to represent the cost of each smoothie, and then solve the inequality.

 

I put 4x>16

then I solved it

4>x

Why am I wrong?

Answer 1

"The bill was less than $16"    means

      4x                <      16

 

You are smart enough to take it from there.
