Evaluating the Reasonableness of Solutions
Each shelf of a shelving unit can hold a maximum of 80 pounds. Ryan wants to determine
the number of 5-pound bags of flour he can put on one shelf that already has 33 pounds of
canned fruit.
a. USE A MODEL Write an inequality to determine the number of bags Ryan can place on
the shelf.
b. USE STRUCTURE Solve the inequality you wrote in part a. State any constraints that
are needed.
c. USE A MODEL On another shelf Ryan would like to put 14.5 oz boxes of cereal. Write
and solve an inequality to determine how many boxes Ryan can place on the shelf.
State any constraints that are needed.
