Answer

Find out the  inequality represents the solution set that shows the number of loads, n, that the dump truck driver will haul.

To proof

As given

A dump truck driver must haul 112 cubic yards of dirt to a construction site.

The maximum load for the dump truck is 14 cubic yards.

Let us assume that  the number of loads = n

Than the inequality in the form

[tex]14n\geq 112[/tex]

[tex]n\geq \frac{112}{14}[/tex]

n≥ 8

Therefore the number of the of loads be 8.

Hence proved

Answer:

n ≥ 8

If n = the number of loads hauled, then n14 ≥ 112.

Therefore,

n14 ≥ 112

n ≥  

112

14

n ≥ 8
