Think of an activity that you enjoy or are interested in. some examples are reading, swimming, or leveling up your gaming character. use your activity to work through the following problems: create a scenario that leads to an inequality of the form ax + b > c. you can use any of the inequality symbols (> , ≥, < , ≤) in your inequality. for this step, just write the word problem. write the inequality and show all work to solve the inequality. graph the solution to your inequality on a number line.; explain what your solution means in the context of the problem.

step-by-step explanation:

you should talk someone who owns the website about it. you did not deserve to have all that hard work and time taken away. id watch videos of little puppies to cool you down, and maybe some nacho cheese doritos.

hello!

to begin with, we're given that on earth, a rock weighs 20 pounds, and while on jupiter, that same rock weighs 42 pounds. now, we're trying to find the weight of a rock that weighs 10.5 pounds on earth, on jupiter.

to solve this, first, set up a proportion, cross-multiply, and solve it algebraically.

setting up the proportion is the hardest and the most confusing part of the problem, but it's simple.

if on earth, the rock weighs 20 lbs, and on jupiter it weighs 42 lbs, our first part of our proportion is 20/42 lbs. the second part has to be equal to each other. this means that 10.5 has to be on the numerator of the fraction, and x, the value we're trying to find, has to be on the denominator. remember that the rock weighs 10.5 lbs on earth, and we're trying to find the weight of it on jupiter (which is x).

20/42 = 10.5/x

next, you would cross-multiply.

20x = 42(10.5)

20x = 441

now, solve it algebraically by using division.

x = 22.05 lbs

this can be rounded to 22.1 lbs.

therefore, the weight of the rock on jupiter is 22.1 lbs, the fourth choice.
