The inequality that represents this situation is [tex]\frac{g}{2}> 12[/tex] . The simplest form of the inequality is [tex]g> 24[/tex] i.e. Fish tank has more than 24 gallons of water .
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we have , A fish tank is half full with water. The tank has more than 12 gallons of water in it. the fish tank has a total capacity of g gallons . We need to find inequality that represents this . Let's find out:
It's given that fish tank has a total capacity of g gallons , and it's half full of water i.e. total water is [tex]\frac{g}{2}[/tex] gallons . According to question , The tank has more than 12 gallons of water in it i.e.
⇒ [tex]water > 12[/tex]
⇒ [tex]\frac{g}{2}> 12[/tex]
⇒ [tex]\frac{g(2)}{2}> 12(2)[/tex]
⇒ [tex]g> 12(2)[/tex]
⇒ [tex]g> 24[/tex]
Therefore, The simplest form of the inequality is [tex]g> 24[/tex] i.e. Fish tank has more than 24 gallons of water .
