Leila will run more than35 miles this week. So far, she has run 17 miles. What are the possible numbers of additional miles she will run?
Use for the number of additional miles she will run.
Write your answer as an inequality solved for .
Let x represent the number of additional miles Leila will run.
Given that Leila will run more than 35 miles in total this week, we can set up the following inequality:
x + 17 > 35
Subtracting 17 from both sides, we get:
x > 18
Therefore, the possible numbers of additional miles Leila will run are x > 18.
