A river is rising at a rate of 3 inches per hour. If the river rises more than 24 inches, it will exceed flood stage. How long can the river rise at this rate without exceeding flood stage? Use the Math Quill tool to type the inequality that would be used to solve this problem. DO NOT SOLVE. I dont need the answer i just need the starting equation

3r 'lesser than or equal to sign' 24

Step-by-step explanation:

proportions are fractions that equal to each other. so if two fractions are the same, they are proportional.

let's check the answers to see if they are proportional.

question a is not proportional because you can't turn 1.5/3 to 3/9. if you try to multiply 1.5/3 by 2 or 3, you wont get 3/9. it's impossible to make the fractions the same.

question b is not proportional because you can't turn 22/33 to 4/6. 33 can't go into 6.

question c is proportional because when you multiply 2 and 3 by 71, you would get 142/213, and those fractions equal to each other

question d is proportional because when you divide 14 and 7 by 2, you would end up with 7/3.5, and those fractions equal to each other.
