Question

Tim has to mow his lawn in under two hours. If "t" represents the time it takes to mow the lawn, how can you express this as an inequality? At > 2 incorrect answer Bt < 2 incorrect answer C2 ≠ t incorrect answer Dt = 2

Answer 1

B. t<2 hours

Explanation:

If Tim has to mow his lawn in under two hours.

It means:

• Tim cannot spend more than two hours mowing the lawn, therefore t>2 is not correct.
• 2
  `\\eq`t means that Tim can spend less or more than 2 hours which is not what is required.
• Tim cannot spend exactly two hours mowing the lawn, therefore t=2 is not correct.

Tim must finish mowing the lawn before two hours, therefore t<2 is the correct option.
