Question

lena will run less than 38 miles this week. so far she has run 20 miles. what are the possible numbers of additional miles she will run

Answer 1

Explanation:

Let x be the number of additional miles she runs this week.

(38-20) = 18, but since she's running LESS than 38 miles, it would be:

0<= x <18

She can run any number of miles that is less than 18 but greater than or equal to 0. (You can't run negative miles.)
