Question

You are at an pear picking farm and they allow you to pick up to 50 pears a day. Today, you have already picked 14 pears. Which inequality below would represent how many pears you can still pick, p?

p − 14 ≤ 50

p + 14 ≥ 50

p − 14 ≥ 50

p + 14 ≤ 50

Answer 1

Answer:

p + 14 ≤ 50

Step-by-step explanation:

what you pick, p , plus the 14 you have, must be less than the 50 allowed.

Answer 2

Answer:

p + 14 ≤ 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you have already picked 14, you can pick p more. The sum of what you have already picked and what you will pick has to be 50 or less.
