Q

Your school is having a fall carnival. Admission into the carnival is $3 and each game inside the carnival costs $0.25. Write an inequality statement that represents the possible number of games that can be played having $9.50. What is the maximum number of games that can
be played?

A

Solution:
$9.50 - $3.00 = $6.50 left after admission.
$6.50 / $0.25 = 26
Assume the number of games played is x.
x ≤ 26

The maximum number of games that could be played is 26.

Q

The low temperatures for the last two days were 28° and 15°.
What must the low temperature for the next day be in order for the
average temperature for the 3-day period to be less than 19°?

A

Solution:
Let n be the third day’s temperature.
28° + 15° + n < 19
3
28 + 15 + n < 57
43 + n < 57
n < 57 – 43
n < 14
The low temperature must be less that 14° for the average three
day temperature to be less that 19°.
