I need help please!!!
Translate to an inequality. The average speed, s, was between 130 & 140 mph. Translation 130 ? s ? 140.
Thanks
130 ? s ? 140.
Use the < sign.
Quantities on the left of the < sign are smaller that quantities on the right of the sign.
You will need two < signs.
To translate the statement "The average speed, s, was between 130 and 140 mph" into an inequality, you can use the symbol for "greater than or equal to" (≥) to represent the lower limit and "less than or equal to" (≤) to represent the upper limit. Therefore, the inequality becomes:
130 ≤ s ≤ 140
This represents that the average speed, s, is greater than or equal to 130 mph and less than or equal to 140 mph.
