Answer 1

Given

The speed limit in your neighborhood is 25 miles per hour.

To write an inequality to show the speed that could cause you to get a speeding ticket.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

The speed limit in your neighborhood is 25 miles per hour.

Then,

Let s be the speed of the vehicle.

Since, the speed limit is 25 miles per hour.

Then,

`s\leq25`

Therefore, when the speed exceeds the limit 25 miles per hour, then you may get a speeding ticket.

That implies, at the inequality

`s>25`

one may get a speeding ticket.

Hence, the inequality is, s > 25.
