Question

Morgan moves no more than 26 of her sheep and goats into another field. Fewer than 14 of her animals are sheep.Let s represent the number of sheep and g represent the number of goats. Identify two inequalities that represent this situation

A.s – g ≤ 26
B.s < 14
C.g > 14
D.s + g ≤ 26

Answer 1

Let
s-------> represent the number of sheep
g-------> represent the number of goats

we know that
1) Morgan moves no more than 26 of her sheep and goats into another field
so
(s+g) ≤ 26------> inequality 1

2) Fewer than 14 of her animals are sheep
so
s < 14-------> inequality 2

therefore

the answers are
B.) s < 14
D.) s + g ≤ 26
