Holly, the author, has written 160 pages of her next book. She needs to write a minimum of 20 pages per day to complete the expected 380 page book. Which inequality below expresses this situation?

Respuesta :

Answer:

days  ≤ 6

Step-by-step explanation:

she gas 160 pages out of the 380 pages, so she needs to write other:

380 - 160 = 120 pages.

If she writes a minimum of 20 pages per day, then the maximum number of days in which she will finish the book is:

20*d = 120

d = 120/20 = 6

so d is the number of days, and we have that:

d ≤ 6.

The equality is when she only writhes 20 pages per day, and if she writes more than that, then the number of days needed will be smaller than 6.
