In a game, players earn points for completing challenges. The rules state that players with a score of 5 points, write and solve an inequality to find out how many more points they need to reach the eligibility for the bonus round. Use the variable “p” to represent points.

Answer 1

The inequality would be:
5 + x < 10

To solve for x, we subtract 5 from both sides:
x < 5

This means that players with 5 points need to earn less than 5 more points to reach the eligibility for the bonus round.
