Question

Devin is collecting signatures for a petition to open a new park in her town. She needs to collect at least 1,000

signatures before she can schedule a meeting with the mayor. She already has 380 signatures. If each petition page
holds 80 signatures, which inequality best shows how many more pages (p) Devin needs?

Answer 1

P = t - f

Explanation:

First we need to find how many pages in total she needs so 1,000/80 - 12.5 so 13 pages. Then 380/80 4.75 of a page filled so subtract that from 12.5 to get 8 pages left to fill.

let p = pages left to fill

let T = total pages needed

let F = pages already filled
