Write an inequality to represent this situation, where x is the age of the youngest brother. Multiple choice question. A: x−(x+1)−(x+2)>60 B: x+2x+3x>60 C: x+(x+1)+(x+2)≥60 D:x+(x+1)+(x+2)>60 Part B: Solve the inequality. The older brother is no ( younger/older) than ( 22, 13, 21,12) Based on the solution of the inequality in part b, the youngest brother is no ( younger/older) than ( 19,10,20).

Answer:

D: x + (x+1) + (x+2) > 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = youngest brother age

x + 1 = older brother age

x + 2 = oldest brother age

Fathers age = 60

The inequality is

x + (x+1) + (x+2) > 60

x + x + 1 + x + 2 > 60

3x + 3 > 60

3x > 60 - 3

3x > 57

x > 57/3

x > 19

x + 1

19 + 1

20

x + 2

19 + 2

21

The oldest brother is no younger than 21

The youngest brother is no younger than 19

The oldest brother is 2 years older than the youngest brother since each are one year apart.
