It's often hard to think of why inequalities might be useful in life. Actually, you probably use inequalities on a regular basis without even thinking about it. For example, you might tell yourself that at your summer job you need to earn at least $200. Did you know that situation can be represented as an inequality? (x≥200) Describe one other situation in your life that can be represented as an inequality. Be sure to provide the inequality with the situation. Does your situation have a minimum and maximum? How would you express that in words or in an inequality?

when you go to the pet store to buy food for your pet, you look at 2 bags, one is only $20 and the others $65. so 20<65 the minimum is 20 and the maximum is 65. The inequality is 20 < 65. yw
