the sum of 4.5 and one-third a number is equal to at most 38.9 what are all the possible values of the number? how would you write an inequality that could be used to solve this problem

Answer 1

Let's assume the number is represented by the variable "x."

The sum of 4.5 and one-third of the number is equal to at most 38.9 can be written as an inequality:

4.5 + (1/3)x ≤ 38.9

To solve this inequality, we are looking for all the possible values of "x" that satisfy this condition.
