Sumiko is allowed to watch no more than 10 hours of television each week. She has watched 4 hours of television already.

Question

Write and solve an inequality to show how many more problems Wayne must complete.

Answer 1

Hello, Lee

I think you are missing important information.  But let me at least help you with what I can make up. First the phrase

" no more" is translated with the less than or equal to symbol, <=/

 

So, the inequality for Sumiko will be

 

t+4 <= 10         Where t is the number of hours has less to watch

   -4    -4           Subtracting 4 from both sides

t <= 6               This means, that she can watch up to 6 more hour, 6, but no more than that. 

 

Since you did not copy the second part of the problem correctly, I cannot help you out with that.
