Question

The student council needs to make a banner for the seventh-grade dance. The dance committee decides that the length of the banner will be 16 feet. What are the possible widths of the banner if the students can use no more than 40 square feet of material? Find the solution set of the inequality 16w ≤ 40 to solve the problem.

A rectangle with a length of 16 feet and width of w.

What are the possible widths of the banner if the students can use no more than 40 square feet of material?
at most 2.5 ft wide
less than 2.5 ft wide
at least 0.4 ft wide
no more than 0.4 ft wide

Answer 1

Answer:  Choice A) at most 2.5 ft wide

Work Shown:

16w ≤ 40

w ≤ 40/16

w ≤ 2.5

This says that the banner must be at most 2.5 ft wide (choice A)

In other words, the largest the width can get is w = 2.5; we can think of this as the ceiling value.
