1. Students in a ninth grade class measured their heights, h, in centimeters. The height of the shortest student was 155 cm, and the height of the tallest student was 190 cm. Which inequality represents the range of heights?
(1) 155 < h <190
(2) 155 ≤ h ≤ 190
(3) 155 ≥ h or h ≤ 190
(4) h > 155 or h < 190
2. The sign shown below is posted in front of a roller coaster ride at the Wadsworth County Fairgrounds.
All riders MUST be at least 48 inches tall. |
If h represents the height of a rider in inches, what is a correct translation of the statement on this sign?
(1) h < 48
(2) h > 48
(3) h ≤ 48
(4) h ≥ 48
These questions almost answer themselves.....did you find the answers? It is about learning HOW the symbols translate into English.....
THIS is ' less than or equal to' : <= or ≤
This is 'greater than or equal to' >= or ≥
your First question asks for 'h' greater than or equal to 155 Right?
and it also asks for 'h' less than or equal to 190........ does this help? Which answer says these ???
Your SECOND question says you have to be at LEAST 48" tall ....or: greater than or equal to 48 inches.....clearer now?
Well yes I understand what your saying but can you least say the answer for both? PLZ!
