Write a situation for 15x -20 with a sign no greater than 130 and solve

15x-20 <= 130

15x <= 150
x <= 10

To create a situation for 15x - 20 with a sign no greater than 130, let's assume that 15x - 20 represents the number of points a person scores in a basketball game. This situation ensures that the person does not score more than 130 points in the game.

Now, let's solve the equation 15x - 20:

15x - 20 = 130

To isolate the variable, we can start solving by adding 20 to both sides of the equation:

15x = 130 + 20
15x = 150

Next, to find the value of x, we divide both sides of the equation by 15:

x = 150 / 15
x = 10

Therefore, in this situation, the person scored 10 points in the basketball game to ensure their total score stays within 130 points.

Sure! Let's create a situation for the expression 15x - 20 with a sign no greater than 130.

Let's say that the expression 15x - 20 represents the profit, in dollars, from selling x number of items. We want to find the maximum number of items that can be sold while still keeping the profit below or equal to 130 dollars.

To solve this, we can set up an inequality:

15x - 20 ≤ 130

Now let's solve it step by step:

1. Add 20 to both sides of the inequality:
15x - 20 + 20 ≤ 130 + 20
15x ≤ 150

2. Divide both sides of the inequality by 15 to isolate x:
15x/15 ≤ 150/15
x ≤ 10

Therefore, in this situation, the maximum number of items that can be sold while keeping the profit below or equal to 130 dollars is 10 items (or fewer).
