Sure! Let's go through each question step by step and explain how to find the answers.
1) The inequality given is: m - 7 < 6
To solve this inequality, we need to isolate the variable "m". We can do this by adding 7 to both sides of the inequality:
m - 7 + 7 < 6 + 7
Simplifying, we get:
m < 13
So the correct answer is D: < 13.
2) The inequality given is: n - 8 > 5
To solve this inequality, we need to isolate the variable "n". We can do this by adding 8 to both sides of the inequality:
n - 8 + 8 > 5 + 8
Simplifying, we get:
n > 13
So the correct answer is A: > 13.
3) The inequality given is: p + 5 < 10
To solve this inequality, we need to isolate the variable "p". We can do this by subtracting 5 from both sides of the inequality:
p + 5 - 5 < 10 - 5
Simplifying, we get:
p < 5
So the correct answer is B: < 5.
4) The bus holds at most 35 people, and there are 20 students going. So, to find the greatest number of adults who can chaperone, we subtract the number of students from the maximum capacity of the bus:
35 - 20 = 15
So the correct answer is C: 15.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
