Question

Every week, a car dealer ship sells at least 5 minivans. Write an inequality that represents this situation. Let c represent the number of minivans sold each week.

Answer 1

An inequality 'c ≥ 5' represents this situation.

Explanation:

We know that the inequality symbol '≥' represents 'at least'.

For example, 'x≥y' means 'x' is greater than or equal to b. It means 'x' is at least equal to 'y'.

Let 'c' represent the number of minivans sold each week.

As a car dealer ship sells at least 5 minivans. It means the dealer can also sell more than 5.

i.e. c ≥ 5

Therefore, an inequality 'c ≥ 5' represents this situation.
