Question

Kareem and Christine each ran every day as part of an exercise routine. Kareem ran 5 miles each day for x days. Christine ran 6 miles each day for y days.

The total number of miles that Kareem ran is at least the total number of miles that Christine ran. Write an equality describing this relationship.

Answer 1

`5x \geq 6y`
The inequality above shows the relationship.

In this case, Kareem miles on the left have to be at least as much as Christine's on the right.

It would read: 5x is greater than or equal to 6y.
