Replies katjassidekick Posted at 8:36 pm on Nov. 18, 2008 H+T is equal to or greater than 150. You know how to make the equal to or greater than sign right? freakyredhead Posted at 8:36 pm on Nov. 18, 2008 Quote: from Ancient Rights at 8:34 pm on Nov. 18, 2008 X = Ham Y = Turkey 150 = X + Y X = 150 - Y Y = 150 - X this isn't an inequality Missing Piece Posted at 8:35 pm on Nov. 18, 2008 150 </= h + t ? idk that's the only way I could think to set it up. H = ham and T= turkey So the number of turkey sandwiches plus the number of ham sandwiches must be equal to 150 or greater than 150 alastrxxna Posted at 8:35 pm on Nov. 18, 2008 75<turkey<infinity 75<ham<infinity idk, ha. katjassidekick Posted at 8:35 pm on Nov. 18, 2008 Quote: from Ancient Rights at 8:34 pm on Nov. 18, 2008 X = Ham Y = Turkey 150 = X + Y X = 150 - Y Y = 150 - X This is an equation, not inequality. katjassidekick Posted at 8:34 pm on Nov. 18, 2008 I'll give you some clues. These are the key words/numbers: - At least - 150 sandwiches - Turkey - Ham - Inequality If you put them all together... freakyredhead Posted at 8:34 pm on Nov. 18, 2008 x+y > or = 150 Ancient Rights Posted at 8:34 pm on Nov. 18, 2008 X = Ham Y = Turkey 150 = X + Y X = 150 - Y Y = 150 - X All 8 previous replies displayed.
