Question

Jacob needs less than 5 C's on his transcript to qualify for UGA. He already has 1 C. At most, how many more C's can he get and still be able to go to UGA? Write an inequality and solve. A) x + 1 ≤ 5; x ≤ 4 B) x + 1 ≥ 5; x ≥ 4 C) x + 1 < 5; x < 4 D) x + 1 > 5; x > 4

Answer 1

The answer is c

Explanation:

Answer 2

C. x + 1 < 5; x < 4

Explanation:

Since he already got 1 C, he can only have 3 more. Since x has to be less than 4, that rules out B and D instantly. A is ruled out because x can't be equal to 4 since you need less than 5 C's to get into UGA.

Hope this helps. :)
