Michael is cutting a 100-yard ribbon into pieces 3.4 yards long. He says that an inequality that represents his project is 3.4x 100. Explain what this statement means, in words, and what each part of the inequality represents

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Michael is cutting a 100-yard ribbon into pieces 3.4 yards long.

Michael says that an inequality that represents his project is 3.4x 100.

Let Michael cuts the ribbon in x no of variables. It is given as :

3.4x is the total length of all the pieces together

i.e.

3.4x is less than or equal to 100.

The required equation that represents the given scanario is :

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.
