Question

You have 16 digs for your current volleyball season. There are 3 games left in the season. You want to break your previous record of 20 digs in a season. Write and solve an inequality that represents the number x of digs you must get in the remaining 3 games to break your record.

Answer 1

You must get more than 4 digs in the remaining 3 games to break your record.

Explanation:

We are told in the question that:

You have 16 digs for your current volleyball season. There are 3 games left in the season. You want to break your previous record of 20 digs in a season.

The Inequality equation is

16 + x > 20

x > 20 - 16

x > 4

Therefore, you must get more than 4 digs in the remaining 3 games to break your record.
