When a store had sold 2/5 of the shirts that were on display, they brought out another 30 from the stockroom. the store likes to keep at least a 150 shirts on display. the manager wrote the inequality 3/5× + 30 > _ 150 to describe the situation.
a. explain what 3/5 means in the in equality.
b. solve the in equality.
c.explain what the solution means in the situation.

Part A) 3/5 is the total number of shirts remaining on display after selling 2/5

Part B) (All real whole numbers greater than or equal to 200 shirts)

Part C) Initially on display were the amount of 200 or more shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-------> total number of shirts on display

we know that

The inequality that represent the situation is

Part A)  Explain what 3/5 means in the inequality

3/5 is the total number of shirts remaining on display after selling 2/5

Part B) Solve the inequality

we have

Subtract 30 both sides

Multiply by 5/3 both sides

Part C) Explain what the solution means in the situation

1) Initially on display were the amount of 200 or more shirts

2) 2/5 were sold and 120 or more shirts were left on display.

3) The store brought out another 30 shirts from the stockroom and placed them on display, for a total of 150 shirts or more on display

We have, 4% × x = 5

or,

4

100

× x = 5

Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 4,

we have x = 5 ×

100

4

x = 125

If you are using a calculator, simply enter 5×100÷4, which will give you the answer.
