Question

Luis needs to run more than 140 miles in order to go with the cross country team to a summer training camp. He has thirty-five days to pre-train for the camp. Which inequality can you use to find how many miles Luis must run each day to meet this goal? A.35m ≥ 140

B.35m > 140
C.35m ≤ 140
D.35m < 140

Answer 1

im pretty sure it is letter c.

Answer 2

It's B.

Luis needs to run strictly MORE than 140 miles. The only two which indicate that the amount Luis runs is more than 140 are A and B. We can eliminate A because it says 35m is greater than or equal to. We are looking for just greater than.
