To graph the solution, we can represent the number line from 0 up to 832,833.33 and shade the area to the left of 832,833.33, including the endpoint.
On the number line, the shaded area represents all possible values of x that satisfy the inequality "x ≤ 832,833.33." This means that any value of x that is less than or equal to 832,833.33 will make the inequality true.
In terms of the situation being described, the inequality "t ≤ 200 60x - $300 ≤ 500,000 - $300" is representing a constraint on the value of x. The inequality states that the value of x must be less than or equal to 832,833.33 in order for the given situation to hold true.
For example, if 60x - $300 is less than or equal to $500,000 - $300, and t is less than or equal to 200, then the value of x can be any number up to 832,833.33. Any value of x greater than 832,833.33 would not satisfy the inequality and would not be a valid solution for the given situation.
Solve your inequality from part D and graph your solution on a number line.
Explain what your solution means in terms of the situation.
Part D. t ≤ 200 60x - $300 ≤ 500,000 - $300 0.60x ≤ 499,700 = x ≤ 499,700 / 0.60 = x ≤ 832,833.33
