Question

Let xx represent the number of additional wheelbarrows needed. Write the inequality representing the situation.

A) 11x>261−25
B) 11x≥261−25
C) 11x<261−25
D) 11x≤261−25

Answer 1

The correct inequality is 11x ≥ 261 - 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

To represent the situation in an inequality, we need to compare the number of additional wheelbarrows needed, represented by 'x', to a certain value. Looking at the answer choices, we can see that the correct inequality is 11x ≥ 261 - 25, option B. This is because we want to express that the number of additional wheelbarrows, 'x', is greater than or equal to the difference between 261 and 25.
