Question

pH is measured on a scale of 0 to 14 and refers to the concentration of an acid or base in water. The recommended pH for a swimming pool is 7.2 to 7.8. Write an inequality that represents the recommended pH of the swimming pool.​

Answer 1

`7.2\leq pH\leq 7.8`

(any variable can be used in place of "pH")

Explanation:

Since the pH has to be between 7.2 and 7.8, it is more than 7.2 and less than 7.8.

The less than equal to sign was used because the pH can also equal 7.2 and 7.8.

Like mentioned, any variable like x can be used instead of the "pH" I put in the equation, but make sure to define your variable.

Hope I helped!!! :)
