The number line shows the speed limit in miles per hour in the town of Pleasantville and on the highway that borders it. Write a statement of order that shows the relation of the in-town speed limit to the highway speed limit.
The in-town speed limit is less than or equal to (≤) the highway speed limit.
what numbers
The statement of order that shows the relation of the in-town speed limit to the highway speed limit is as follows:
"The in-town speed limit in Pleasantville is typically lower than the speed limit on the highway that borders it."
To write a statement that shows the relation of the in-town speed limit to the highway speed limit, we need to consider the number line representing the speed limits. Let's assume the number line starts from 0 and increases in increments of 10.
On the number line, let's say the in-town speed limit is represented by the point A, and the highway speed limit is represented by the point B.
To demonstrate the order or relation between the in-town and highway speed limits, we can write the statement in terms of inequalities.
For example, if the in-town speed limit is 40 miles per hour and the highway speed limit is 70 miles per hour, we can write the statement as:
"In Pleasantville, the in-town speed limit (A) is less than the highway speed limit (B): A < B."
If instead the in-town speed limit is 60 miles per hour and the highway speed limit is 50 miles per hour, we can write the statement as:
"In Pleasantville, the in-town speed limit (A) is greater than the highway speed limit (B): A > B."
Therefore, the statement of order depends on the specific values assigned to the in-town and highway speed limits.
