Question

The sewers in Boston can drain up to 5 inches of rain per day. How would you write an inequality that shows the inches of rainfall (r) that are safe for Boston’s sewers to drain?(1 point)

1 answer

The inequality would be:

r ≤ 5

This inequality states that the inches of rainfall (r) must be less than or equal to 5 for Boston's sewers to safely drain.
