-- Posted by lauren8754 at 8:32 pm on Nov. 18, 2008 you need to make at least 150 sandwiches for a picnic. you are making turkey sandwiches and ham sandwiches. write an inequality for the number of sandwiches you can make. i kno simple riight? but im and blonde thats my excuse -- Posted by Ancient Rights at 8:34 pm on Nov. 18, 2008 X = Ham Y = Turkey 150 = X + Y X = 150 - Y Y = 150 - X -- Posted by freakyredhead at 8:34 pm on Nov. 18, 2008 x+y > or = 150 -- Posted by katjassidekick 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... -- Posted by katjassidekick 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. -- Posted by alastrxxna at 8:35 pm on Nov. 18, 2008 75 75 idk, ha. -- Posted by Missing Piece at 8:35 pm on Nov. 18, 2008 150 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 -- Posted by freakyredhead 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 -- Posted by katjassidekick 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?
