Question

Which inequality represents the

following situation times 5 less
than a number is no more than 27?

Answer 1

Answer: Option D

The inequality that represents the situation is:

`(3)/(5)(x-5)\leq 27`

following situation

Explanation:

Suppose an unknown number X.

That number minus 5 is:

`x-5`

Now,
`(3)/(5)` times the unknown number minus 5 is:

`(3)/(5)(x-5)`

We know that all this expression is not greater than 27.

Then we use the symbol "less or equal than" (
`\leq`) to represent the situation

`(3)/(5)(x-5)\leq 27`

Answer 2

`(3)/(5)(x - 5) \leq 27`
