Answer 1

Answer: Jenny's score is no less than 5 points greater than 4/5 of Terrance's score.

Explanation:

The inequality that represents the situation described is:

Jenny's score (denoted as "J") is no less than 5 points greater than 4/5 of Terrance's score (denoted as "T"):

J ≥ (4/5)T + 5

In this inequality, we are saying that Jenny's score "J" must be greater than or equal to 4/5 of Terrance's score "T", plus an additional 5 points. This reflects the condition that Jenny's score should be at least 5 points higher than 4/5 of Terrance's score.

For example, if Terrance's score "T" is 80, then 4/5 of Terrance's score is (4/5) * 80 = 64. Adding 5 points to this gives us 69. Therefore, Jenny's score "J" must be greater than or equal to 69 in this case, since it should be no less than 5 points greater than 4/5 of Terrance's score.
