write an inequality that represnts
this sentence, graph the solution.
A hamster weighs less than 10 ounces. thanks
Weight < 10 ounces.
Need more info to graph.
I hope this helps. If not, provide the additional information, and we will do our best to help. Thanks for asking.
To write an inequality that represents the sentence "A hamster weighs less than 10 ounces," we can use the less than symbol (<). Let's assign a variable to represent the weight of the hamster. We can use the letter "w" for weight.
The inequality would be:
w < 10
To graph the solution, we can represent the variable "w" on the horizontal axis and the weight on the vertical axis. Since the hamster weighs less than 10 ounces, all values of "w" that are less than 10 will be included in the solution.
To graph this on a number line, draw a horizontal line with a point marked at 10, and draw an open circle at the point 10. Then, draw an arrow pointing to the left, indicating that any value less than 10 is part of the solution.
Alternatively, if you want to graph the inequality on the coordinate plane, you can draw a horizontal line and plot points on it. However, since it is a one-variable inequality, a number line would be more appropriate.
