Question

Ten times the sum of a number and 24 is at least -17. Translate the sentence into an inequality ​

Answer 1

10(n+24)≥-17

Explanation:

Let us say that "a number" is n.

Ten times the sum of a number and 24. This means 10(n+24). All of that is at least -17. That means 10(n+24) can be -17 or more.

10(n+24)≥-17
