Please help this question is really confusing!


A step on a stairway is at least 8 inches high. Write and solve an inequality to represent the minimum number of steps between floors that are 10 feet apart.


Instead of giving me the answer, can someone explain how to go about this in steps(in class, we are using variables, so somewhere in the inequality, I have to put one in)?

Respuesta :

dannielle
x< or equal 10 feet : 8 inches  ( x -number of steps)
10 feet=120 inches
x< or equal 120 in. :8 in.
x < or equal 15

if the step of the stairway is increasing the number of steps is decreasing, that is why I put the sign " < or equal"
