there are already 42 people signed up for the events at the commutity center feild day. the event leader says the number of people signed up must be above 180 in order for feild day to happen people sign up in pairs how many more pairsneed to sign up? DO NOT SOLVE
Based on the given information, there are 42 people already signed up. Since people sign up in pairs, the number of people signed up can be divided by 2 to determine the number of pairs. Therefore, there are 42/2 = <<42/2=21>>21 pairs signed up.
To find the number of additional pairs needed, subtract the current number of pairs from the desired number of pairs. Since the event leader stated that the number of people signed up must be above 180, the desired number of pairs can be found by multiplying 180 by 2 (since each pair consists of two people). Therefore, the desired number of pairs is 180*2 = <<180*2=360>>360 pairs.
The number of pairs needed can be found by subtracting the current number of pairs from the desired number of pairs: 360 - 21 = <<360-21=339>>339 pairs.
Therefore, 339 more pairs need to sign up for the field day event.

Let x represent the number of pairs that need to sign up. The total number of pairs signed up will be (42 + x). Since each pair consists of two people, the total number of people signed up will be 2 * (42 + x).
To satisfy the condition that the number of people signed up must be above 180, we can write the following inequality:
2 * (42 + x) > 180
