Question

Amanda's family is taking a road trip. Their car can travel no more than 352 miles without needing to refill the gas tank. They have traveled 108 miles since they last filled the gas tank.

Amanda knows that the inequality representing this situation is 108+x≤352.

Select from the drop-down menu to correctly interpret the solution of this inequality.
Amanda's family can drive miles before they need to refill the gas tank.

Answer 1

From the solution to the inequality, the correct interpretation is that:

Amanda's family can drive 244 miles before they need to refill the gas tank.

The amount of miles they can still travel is modeled by the following inequality:

$108 + x \leq 352$

It is solved similarly to an equality, hence:

$x \leq 352 - 108$

$x \leq 244$

Then:

Amanda's family can drive 244 miles before they need to refill the gas tank.
