a group of friends plans to play board games during a game night they have an total of 6 hours for the game night if they have 4 games that they want to play how much time can they spend playing each game? useing t for time write and solve an inequantity for this sanario
Let x be the amount of time they can spend playing each game.
Since they have a total of 6 hours for game night and they want to play 4 games, the total time spent playing games should be 4x hours.
So, the equation becomes:
4x <= 6
Divide by 4 on both sides:
x <= 1.5
Therefore, they can spend a maximum of 1.5 hours playing each game.
put the equation down
4x <= 6
its only 1.5 not 6
Apologies for the mistake:
4x <= 6
x <= 1.5
so it would be 4x>6;z>1.5
If we want to find the maximum amount of time they can spend playing each game, we should use the inequality:
4x < 6
Divide by 4:
x < 1.5
Therefore, they can spend a maximum of 1.5 hours playing each game.
so the answer is 4x>6;x>1.5
I apologize for the confusion. Let me clarify the correct inequality and solution.
Given that the group of friends has a total of 6 hours for game night and they want to play 4 games, the equation should be:
4x <= 6
Dividing by 4:
x <= 1.5
Therefore, they can spend a maximum of 1.5 hours playing each game. The correct inequality is:
x <= 1.5
