3. PRE-ALGEBRA LESSON 2-10 A 1-ton truck has the ability to haul 1 ton, or 2,000 lb. At most, how many television sets can the truck carry if each TV set weighs 225 lb? 225x 2,000 < – Let x = number of televisions. Inequality Words number of televisions 225 lb2,000 lbtimes is less than or equal to x2252,000 < – 2-10 Solving One-Step Inequalities by Multiplying or Dividing

4. PRE-ALGEBRA LESSON 2-10 (continued) Divide each side by 225. < – 2,000 225 225x 225 x 8.8Simplify. Round the answer down to find a whole number of television sets. < – At most, the truck can carry 8 television sets. CheckIs the answer reasonable? The total weight of 8 television sets is 8(225) = 1,800 lb, which is less than 2,000 lb but so close that another television set could not be carried. The answer is reasonable.
