Answer:
[tex]17 \le t \le 28[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]t = 22\frac{1}{2}[/tex] --- average time
[tex]\triangle t = 5\frac{1}{2}[/tex] --- the variation
Required
The inequality to represent the scenario
To do this, we simply add and subtract the variation from the average time.
i.e.
[tex]t \± \triangle t[/tex]
So, the inequality is:
[tex]22\frac{1}{2} - 5\frac{1}{2} \le t \le 22\frac{1}{2} + 5\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Solve:
[tex]17 \le t \le 28[/tex]
