3) Which inequality represents this scenario?

A) w > 3.3
B) w< 3.4
C) w <3.3
D) w < 3.3


Sagot :

Answer:

w < 3.3

C) w < 3.3

D) w < 3.3

Answer:   [tex]w \le 3.3[/tex]

=====================================================

Explanation:

w is the weight and it may be no more than 3.3 pounds. This is the same as saying that 3.3 pounds is the highest it can go. Think of it as the ceiling.

w = 3.3 is possible or anything smaller than it is possible.

So w is 3.3 or smaller meaning we write the inequality [tex]w \le 3.3[/tex]

The answer is not w < 3.3 because that would exclude 3.3 itself.

The answer is between choices C and D. It seems like one of those inequality signs should have an underline.
