Question

Mike work less than 40 hours per week. What inequalities represents x, the number of hours Mimi works per week?

Answer 1

Since Mike cannot work less than 0 hours per week, and x represents the number of worked hours per week, then we have that:

`0\leq x`

On the other hand, since Mike works less than 40 hours per week, then:

`x<40`

Combining both inequalities, we have that:

`0\leq x<40`
