Question

Jason wants to score at least 15 points in his basketball game. He scored 8 points in the first half of the game. He needs to score b points to reach his goal. Which inequality can be used to find the possible values for b?

A. b +8 ≥ 15
B. b +8 > 15
C. b - 8 ≤ 15
D. b - 8 < 15

Answer 1

A.

Explanation:

Let's say that b=7. This would mean that he has equaled his goal. If it is greater than 7, the equation still makes since.
