1. Create a scenario that leads to an inequality of the form ax + b > c. You can use any of the inequality symbols (>, ≥, <, ≤) in your inequality. For this step, just write the word problem. 2. Write the inequality and show all work to solve the inequality.
3. Graph the solution to your inequality on a number line.

1) Ola taxi charges a $8 flat rate in addition to $2 per mile. Paul has no more than $10 to spend on a ride.

2) Let x be the number of miles.

Then, we have inequality:  

Solve the inequality:  

Subtract 2 from both the sides:  

Simplify:  

Divide by 8 both sides we get:  

as shown in figure 1.

3) From the context of the problem : we can say that Paul can travel 1 miles or less before reaching his limit of $10.

answer: the answer to your question is parallel

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

x - 3

discussion:

x^2 - 9 = (x-3) (x+3)   so

(x^2-9)/ (x + 3) = x-3

you,
