Question

At Thursday’s basketball game, there were more than twice as many adult spectators as children. If x represents the number of adults and y represents the number of children, which inequality can be used to find the possible combinations of adults and children at the game?

Answer 1

The inequality equation should be x > 2y.

Answer 2

x > 2y

Explanation:

It is given in the question that there were more than twice as many adult spectators as children.

If x represents the number of adults and y represents the number of children then inequality representing the relation will be

x > 2y

So inequality given above can be used to find the possible combinations of adults and children at the game.
