Question

A cooking class needs minimum of 12 students to run.At this time 7 students have signed up for the class.write an inequality to represent the situation

Answer 1

Minimum number of students required for cooking class is 12.

Number of students who have signed up already = 7

Let us say x number of students are needed at this time for the class to start.

So we can say if we have x+7 students .

Writing the inequality:

$x+7\geq12$

So the above inequality represents this situation very well.
