Can Someone Help Me? really quickly
In a certain town the temperature, x in degrees Celsius on a certain day is described by two statements:
If 3 times the temperature is increased by 2, the temperature is still less than 14°C.
Twice the temperature minus 7 is greater than -11°C.
The average temperature in another town is 3°C but the actual temperature is within 4°C of the average. Write and solve an inequality to find the range of temperature in this town

Answer 1

@ganeshie8 you think you could help me?

Answer 2

Part A: Create a compound inequality to represent the temperature range. (3 points) for this i got 3x+2>14 which equals x>4

Answer 3

@jigglypuff314 could you help with the part c part?

Answer 4

erm, well for A, the inequality should be (temperature) < 14
not > :)

Answer 5

it says less then?

Answer 6

yes, "less than" = <

like the wider side wants to eat the bigger number

Answer 7

ohkay so its 3x+2<14
so part be is x<4 ?

Answer 8

yes part A would be x<4 :)

Answer 9

so what about part c?

Answer 10

x would be between (3-4) and (3+4)

Answer 11

so i just put that?

Answer 12

Part C: The average temperature in another town is 3°C but the actual temperature is within 4°C of the average. Write and solve an inequality to find the range of temperature in this town. (4 points)

Answer 13

@johnweldon1993

Answer 14

you would need to put what I said into inequality form
x would be between (3-4) and (3+4)

Answer 15

i dont know how

Answer 16

"x would be between (lower number) and (higher number)"
-> (lower number) < x < (higher number)

so x would be between (3-4) and (3+4)
-> ?
