Shane and Abha earned a team badge that required their team to collect no less than 2000 cans for recycling. Abha collected 178 more cans than Shane did. Write an inequality to determine the number of cans, S, that Shane could have collected. What is the solution set of the inequality?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Shane could have collected more than 911 Cans

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to write an inequality to find the number of cans, S that Shane could have collected:

Cans collected by Shane and Abha > 2000

S + A > 2000

Abha collected 178 more cans than Shane did.

A  = 178 + S

Put value of A in the above inequality

S + 178 + S > 2000

2S + 178 > 2000

2S > 2000 - 178

2S > 1822

S > 911
