Kevin is buying water for his camping trip. he knows he needs at least 20 gallons of water for the trip. he already has five and a half gallons. the water comes in 32-fluid ounce (quarter-gallon) containers. what algebraic inequality represents this situation?

Step-by-step explanation:

Kevin already has five and a half gallons of water for the trip

He knows he needs at least 20 gallons of water for the trip.

The water comes in 32-fluid ounce (quarter-gallon) containers.

1 fluid ounce =0.0078125 gallons

32-fluid ounce

Let x be the number 32-fluid ounce (quarter-gallon) containers required  to have at least 20 gallons of water for the trip.

1 container contains 0.25 gallons of water

So, x container contains 0.25x gallons of water

So, Kelvin has total gallons of water =

Since we are given that He knows he needs at least 20 gallons of water for the trip.

So,

Hence the algebraic inequality represents this situation is
