Write an inequality to model the situation a restaurant can seat at most 172 people

Answer 1

To model the situation where a restaurant can seat at most 172 people, you can use the following inequality:

\[ x \leq 172 \]

In this inequality, \( x \) represents the number of people that can be seated in the restaurant. The inequality states that the number of people seated, \( x \), cannot exceed 172.
