Using an inequality, it is found that the maximum number of desks that Bella can assemble is of 4.
What is the inequality that represents the situation?
We consider that:
- She has already spent 35.5 minutes assembling a chair.
- Then, she assembles x desks, each of which takes 45.5 minutes.
- She has less than 240 minutes to spend assembling furniture each day.
Hence:
[tex]35.5 + 45.5x < 240[/tex]
Then, solving the inequality:
[tex]x < \frac{240 - 35.5}{45.5}[/tex]
[tex]x < 4.49[/tex]
Considering the number of desks has to be an integer, maximum number of desks that Bella can assemble is of 4.
