You bike for 2 hours at a speed no faster than 17.6 mph. Write an inequality that represents the possible number of miles you bike.

Let \( m \) represent the number of miles you bike.

\[ m \leq 2 \times 17.6 \]

\[ m \leq 35.2 \]

total no. of hours you spent biking = 2 hours the speed at which you rode your bike ≤ 17.6 mph Now, We have, s p ee d = t im e d i s t an ce ​
17.6 = 2 d i s t an ce ​
17.6 ∗ 2 = d i s t an ce
35.2 = d i s t an ce
So, you for given conditions, you can't travel more then 35.3 miles
So, the inequality for the given circumstances is: x ≤ 35.2

Let's say you biked as fast as you can at 17.6. 2 hrs later, you would have bike for 2*17.6 miles=35.2 miles. (d=rt) That means that your distance can be no greater than 35.2 and it can be no less than 0 because you can't bike a negative distance like -5 miles. So your inequality would be 0≤ d ≤35.2 where your d is distance

The maximum distance you can bike in 2 hours at a speed not exceeding 17.6 mph is 35.2 miles. This can be represented with the inequality m ≤ 35.2, where m is the distance you bike. Hence, you cannot bike more than 35.2 miles.
