Sarah is allowed to watch no more than 10 hours of television each week. Sarah has already watched 6 hours of television. Define a variable, set up an inequality and solve that inequality to determine how many more hours of television Sarah can watch this week.

Inequality = 6 + x ≤ 10

x(Number of hours more of television Sarah can still watch this week) = 4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Define a variable, set up an inequality and solve that inequality to determine how many more hours of television Sarah can watch this week.

We are told in the question that:

Sarah is allowed to watch no more than 10 hours of television each week.

This means :

Sarah can watch tv for less than or equal to 10 hours in a week. Sarah has already watched 6 hours of television.

Hence:

The number of hours left that Sarah can watch television in a week is represented as x

Our Inequality Equation =

6hours + x hours ≤ 10 hours

6 + x ≤ 10

Solving the inequality

x ≤ 10 - 6

x ≤ 4 hours

This means Sarah still has no more than (less than or equal to) 4 hours or television left to watch in this week

the equation is not included but the answer is (1.50, 2.00, 2.75)
