Question

Andre hit 46 balls at practice. He hit no fewer than 20 less than double the number of hits Jason had. Which inequality represents the situation if j represents the number of hits Jason had?

Answer 1

The inequality which represents the situation is:

46≥2j-20

Explanation:

Andre hit 46 balls at practice.

j represents the number of hits Jason had.

Andre hit no fewer than 20 less than double the number of hits Jason had.

this means Andre hit not less than 2j-20

i.e. 46≥2j-20

The inequality which represents the situation is:

46≥2j-20
