Answer:

We need at least 48 minutes to type an essay which consist of at least 1552 words.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of words typed in a minute =24/min

We need to solve an inequality that represents the number of minutes that you will need to type an essay that consists of at least 1152 words.

Solution:

Let the number of minutes needed be 'x'.

So we can say that;

Number of words typed in a minute multiplied by number of minutes needed should be greater than or equal to Total number of words in essay.

framing in equation form we get;

[tex]24x\geq 1152[/tex]

On Solving the above inequality we get;

dividing both side by 24 we get;

[tex]\frac{24x}{24}\geq \frac{1152}{24}\\\\x\geq 48\ min[/tex]

Hence We need at least 48 minutes to type an essay which consist of at least 1552 words.
