Asked by Blackboyjoy
The sum of 4.6 and one-third a number is equal to at most 39.1.
What are all the possible values of the number? Artem wrote the inequality =n + 4.6 ≤ 39.1, where n equals the number, to help solve this problem. Solve his inequality. (1 point)

To solve the inequality, we subtract 4.6 from both sides:
n + 4.6 - 4.6 ≤ 39.1 - 4.6
n ≤ 34.5
Therefore, all possible values of the number are less than or equal to 34.5.
n + 4.6 - 4.6 ≤ 39.1 - 4.6
n ≤ 34.5
Therefore, all possible values of the number are less than or equal to 34.5.

Apologies for the mistake in my previous response. Let's solve the inequality correctly:
The sum of 4.6 and one-third of a number can be expressed as:
4.6 + (1/3)n ≤ 39.1
To isolate n, we subtract 4.6 from both sides:
(1/3)n ≤ 34.5
Next, we can multiply both sides of the inequality by 3 to get rid of the fraction:
3 * (1/3)n ≤ 3 * 34.5
n ≤ 103.5
Therefore, all possible values of the number are less than or equal to 103.5.
