Algebra practice question
A lift can carry a load of no more than 600 kilograms. If w is the load in kilograms, which inequality describes the loads the lift can carry?
- A. w ≤ 600Correct
- B. w < 600
- C. w ≥ 600
- D. w > 600
Answer: A. w ≤ 600
"no more than 600" includes 600 itself.
Why the other answers are wrong
- B. w < 600
- A load of exactly 600 is allowed.
- C. w ≥ 600
- This describes loads too heavy for the lift.
- D. w > 600
- This describes loads too heavy for the lift.
