Question

A commercial aircraft gets the best fuel efficiency if it operates at a minimum altitude of 29,000 feet and a maximum altitude of 41,000 feet. Model the most fuel-efficient altitudes using a compound inequality.

x ≥ 29,000 and x ≤ 41,000
x ≤ 29,000 and x ≥ 41,000
x ≥ 41,000 and x ≥ 29,000
x ≤ 41,000 and x ≤ 29,000

Answer 1

Answer:

$x\geq 29,000$  and  $x\leq 41,000$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the altitude of a commercial aircraft

we know that

The expression " A minimum altitude of 29,000 feet" is equal to

$x\geq 29,000$

All real numbers greater than or equal to 29,000 ft

The expression " A maximum altitude of 41,000 feet" is equal to

$x\leq 41,000$

All real numbers less than or equal to 41,000 ft

therefore

The compound inequality is equal to

$x\geq 29,000$  and  $x\leq 41,000$

All real numbers greater than or equal to 29,000 ft and less than or equal to 41,000 ft

The solution is the interval ------> [29,000,41,000]
