Some population experts say Earth cannot sustain a population of more than 10 billion people. How would you write an inequality showing the sustainable population (p) in billions of people?(1 point) Responses p≥10 p greater-than-or-equal-to 10 p<10 p less-than-or-equal-to 10,000,000,000 p≤10 p less-than-or-equal-to 10 p>10
1 answer
To express the idea that Earth cannot sustain a population of more than 10 billion people, you would want to indicate that the population (p) should be less than or equal to 10 billion. The correct inequality would be:
\( p \leq 10 \)
This notation indicates that the sustainable population is 10 billion or fewer.
