Open Up - Grade 7 - Mathematics - Unit 6 - Lesson 16

Priya looks at the inequality 12 - x > 5 and says “I subtract a number from 12 and want a result that is bigger than 5. That means that the solutions should be values of x that are smaller than something.”

Do you agree with Priya?

When a store had sold \frac{2}{5} of the shirts that were on display, they brought out another 30 from the stockroom. The store likes to keep at least 150 shirts on display. The manager wrote the inequality \frac{3}{5} + 30 \geq 150 to describe the situation.

Explain what \frac{3}{5} means in the inequality.
