In a certain town, the wind speed, x, in km/h on a certain day is described by two statements:1.If 2 times the wind speed is increased by 2, the wind speed is still less than 46 km/h.
2.Twice the wind speed minus 27 is greater than 11 km/h.

Part A: Create a compound inequality to represent the wind speed range.

Part B: Can the wind speed in this town be 20 km/h? Justify your answer by solving the inequalities in Part A.

Question

In a certain town, the wind speed, x, in km/h on a certain day is described by two statements:1.If 2 times the wind speed is increased by 2, the wind speed is still less than 46 km/h.
2.Twice the wind speed minus 27 is greater than 11 km/h.

Part A: Create a compound inequality to represent the wind speed range. 

Part B: Can the wind speed in this town be 20 km/h? Justify your answer by solving the inequalities in Part A.

anonymous · Answer

Part C: The average wind speed in another town is 23 km/h but the actual wind speed is within 4 km/h of the average. Write and solve an inequality to find the range of wind speed in this town.
