Question

Chloe is working two summer jobs, landscaping and clearing tables. She must work no less than 12 hours altogether between both jobs in a given week. Write an inequality that would represent the possible values for the number of hours landscaping, ll, and the number of hours clearing tables, cc, that Chloe can work in a given week.

Answer 1

`L + C \ge 12`

Explanation:

L = hours landscaping

C = hours clearing tables

The sum of the hours must be no less than 12, so it must be 12 or more.

`L + C \ge 12`
