Malia is planting tomato and pepper plants in her garden each tomato plant t requires 6 square feet and each pepper plant p requires 4 square feet of space malia’s garden has an area of 150 square feet which inequality represents this situation

6 t + 4  p   ≤  150   is the required inequality.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the area required for 1 tomato plant = 6 sq ft

So, the area required to plant t tomato plants  

= t x ( Area required by 1  tomato plant)   = t x ( 6 sq ft)  = 6 t

the area required for 1 pepper plant = 4 sq ft

So, the area required to plant p  pepper plants  

= p x ( Area required by 1  pepper plant)   = p x ( 4 sq ft)  = 4 p

Now, total area of the garden = 150 Sq ft.

Also, area of p pepper pants + t tomato plants =   (6 t +  4 p) sq ft

So, now according to the question:

Total area of both plants ≤ Total area of the garden

⇒ (6 t +  4 p) sq ft   ≤  150 sq ft

or, 6 t + 4  p   ≤  150   is the required inequality.

14.3

step-by-step explanation:

add all the numbers together.

9 + 12 + 15 + 16 + 17 + 17 = 86

now, divide 86 by how many numbers we have: 6.

86 / 6 = 14.3
