Question

0.40 X plus 20 < 200 which best describes a number of bars that the band can order 0.40 X plus 20 < 200 which best describes a number of borrowers that can be ordered

Answer 1

So x can have values from zero to 449

Explanation:

0.40 X plus 20 < 200

0.4x +20 < 200

Putting the values of x for 0,1,2,

0.4x +20 < 200

0.4(0) +20 < 200

20< 200

0.4x +20 < 200

0.4(1) +20 < 200

20.4 <200

0.4(2) +20 < 200

20.8 <200

The maximum value which x can have is less than 450 because 450 would give a number equal to 200 and we have the inequality of a number being less than 200

0.4x +20 < 200

0.4(450) +20 < 200

180+20< 200

200 <20 which is wrong.

So x can have values from zero to 449

0.4x +20 < 200

0.4(449) +20 < 200

179.6+20< 200

199.6 <200

X can have the values fom 0 to 449.
