"Children under the age of 13 are not allowed to operate a boat".
Part A- Write an inequality to show the age of children who are allowed to operate a boat.
Part B- Describe in words how you can show the solution to this inequality of a number line.

Respuesta :

Emorix

Answer:

Part A:

x > 13

Part B:

How to show this inequality on a number line is a closed circle on 13, going left of 13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

x represents the age of children who are allowed to operate the boat.

Our inequality is < because if you are of the age of 13 you are allowed to operate the boat,

the inequality x > 13 reads x (the age of children) is greater than or equal to 13

Part B:

How to describe inequalities on a number line;

Closed circle: less than or equal to - or - greater than or equal to ( < , > )

Open circle: less than - or - greater than ( < , > )

To the right of the number on the number line: greater than

To the left of the number on the number line: less than

Answer:

Part A

Let x = age of child (in years)

Given:

"Children under the age of 13 are not allowed to operate a boat"

Therefore, children should be 13 or older:

⇒ x ≥ 13

Part B

Place a closed circle at 13.

Shade to the right of the closed circle.
