Question

Over the next 17 months, Eli needs to read more

than 102 e-books. The inequality 17x > 102

number of e-books Eli needs to read per month.

Answer 1

Number of e-books Eli needs to read per month is Greater than 6

Explanation:

Given - Over the next 17 months, Eli needs to read more than 102 e-books.

The inequality 17x > 102 represents the number of e-books he

needs to read per month.

To find - Solve the inequality to find the number of e-books Eli needs to

read per month.

Proof -

As given, Over the next 17 months Eli need to read more than 102 e-books

i.e 17x > 102

⇒x >
`(102)/(17)`

⇒x > 6

∴ we get

Per month Eli needs to read more than 6 e-books.
