Question

In order to avoid heavy traffic, Antonio can drive home after working less than 7 hours (h < 7) or after working more than 9 hours (h >9). How can these inequalities be written as one statement?

7 < h < 9
7 > h > 9
h < 7 or h > 9
h > 7 or h < 9

Answer 1

Answer:

Option C is correct.

The inequalities can be written as one statement as : h<7 or h>9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h be the working hours

Antonio can drive home after working less than 7 hours.

Less than  symbol represented by ('<')

then, we have  h<7

Antonio after working more than 9 hours.

More than symbol represented by ('>').

then, we have h>9

Since, we use inequalities when there is a range of possible answers for a given situation

Now, as per the given statement,

the inequalities can be written as one statement as; h<7 or h>9
