If the sum of two numbers is at most 100, which equation represents this relationship?

1 answer

The relationship that represents the sum of two numbers being at most 100 can be expressed using an inequality. If we let \( x \) and \( y \) represent the two numbers, the equation that represents this relationship is:

\[ x + y \leq 100 \]

This means that the sum of \( x \) and \( y \) can be equal to 100 or any value less than 100.
