air pressure decreases during a storm. the difference between the normal air pressure n and the air pressure during the 1935 florida keys hurricane wasd greater than 121 millibars. write and solve the inequality to find the normal airpressure in the florida keys before the hurricane.
can u help please
all you have is the difference. You need one more piece of information.
normal - storm > 121
what am i missing
To find the normal air pressure in the Florida Keys before the hurricane, we can set up an inequality.
Let's represent the normal air pressure as "n" (in millibars) and the air pressure during the 1935 Florida Keys hurricane as "n - 121" (since the difference between the normal air pressure and the hurricane's air pressure is greater than 121 millibars).
The inequality can be written as:
n - (n - 121) > 121
Simplifying the inequality:
n - n + 121 > 121
121 > 121
Since the inequality 121 > 121 is not true, it means that there is no solution to this inequality.
Therefore, we can conclude that there is no normal air pressure value "n" that satisfies the condition of the difference between the normal air pressure and the hurricane's air pressure being greater than 121 millibars.
