Answer:
Inequality: x - 21 1/2 ≤ 14 1/4, Solution: x ≤ 35 3/4
Explanation:
Inequality: a difference between a and b is shown as a - b, as difference means subtraction. So, the difference between a number (let's say x) and 21 1/2 is shown as x - 21 1/2. No more means that one side of the inequality is not greater than the other side, thus, it is less than or equal to. Putting those two together gives us x - 21 1/2 ≤ 14 1/4.
Solution: An inequality is solved like an equation (with a few exceptions but it is irrelevant to this problem). Adding 21 1/2 to both sides of the inequality gives us x ≤ 35 3/4.
