p ≤ 60
Solve the inequality 8x > 64
To solve the inequality 8x > 64, we need to isolate x.

Divide both sides of the inequality by 8:
8x/8 > 64/8
x > 8

So the solution to the inequality is x > 8.
Nine members of a band want to order matching T-shirts without spending more than $144. What is the solution of the inequality representing their situation. Use t as the variable.
Let t represent the cost of each matching T-shirt.
Since there are nine band members, the total cost of the T-shirts will be 9t.

The inequality representing the situation is:
9t ≤ 144

This inequality shows that the total cost of the T-shirts cannot exceed $144.
How many suitcases averaging 45 pounds apiece can be loaded on a plane with a maximum weight capacity of 1,800 pounds of storage? If s represents the number of suitcases, which of the following inequalities correctly represents this stuation? ≥≤
The total weight of the suitcases loaded on the plane can be calculated as the product of the number of suitcases (s) and the average weight of each suitcase (45 pounds). This must not exceed the maximum weight capacity of 1,800 pounds.

The correct inequality would be:
45s ≤ 1800

This inequality correctly represents the situation, indicating that the total weight of the suitcases loaded on the plane must be less than or equal to 1800 pounds in order not to exceed the maximum weight capacity.
