FAN AND MEDAL:
In a certain town, the barometric inches of air pressure, x, on a certain day is described by two statements: If 3 times the air pressure is increased by 2, the pressure is still less than 92 inches. Twice the air pressure minus 39 is greater than 11 inches. Part A: Create a compound inequality to represent the air pressure range. (3 points) Part B: Can the air pressure in this town be 24 inches? Justify your answer by solving the inequalities in Part A. (3 points) Part C: The average air pressure in another town is 29 inches, but the actual pressure is within 4 inches of the average. Write and solve an inequality to find the range of air pressure in this town. (4 points)
3x+2<92 and 2x-39>11
For which part? @MaddyMathBunny
Part A
Oh. lol Okay. Do you know how to do Part B and C?
