At maria's auto shop, it takes her 9 minutes to do an oil change and 12 minutes to do a tire change. let x be the number of oil changes she does. let y be the number of tire changes she does. using the values and variables given, write an inequality describing how many oil changes and tire changes maria can do in less than 3 hours (180 minutes).

Respuesta :

The inequality describing oil and tyre change within 180 minutes is 3x + 4y > 60.

Taking each information seperately followed by summing them for a complete equation.

1 oil change taken amount of time = 9 minutes

So, x oil change will take amount of time = 9x

Similarly, y number of tire changes will take amount of time = 12y

Adding these values to form the equation -

Number of oil and tyre changes in less than 180 minutes

Keep the value of each and symbol for 'less than'

9x + 12y > 180

Dividing the inequality by 3

3x + 4y > 60

Hence, the required inequality is 3x + 4y > 60.
