[size=150]The stage manager of the school musical is trying to figure out how many sandwiches he can order with the $83 he collected from the cast and crew. Sandwiches cost $5.99 each, so he lets [math]x[/math] represent the number of sandwiches he will order and writes [math]5.99x\le83[/math]. He solves this to 2 decimal places, getting [math]x\le13.86[/math].[/size][br][br]Which of these are valid statements about this situation? (Select [b]all [/b]that apply.)

Solve your inequality and explain what the solution means.

If the mover asked, “How many boxes can I load on this elevator at a time?” what would you tell them?

In a day care group, nine babies are five months old and 12 babies are seven months old. How many full months from now will the average age of the 21 babies first surpass 20 months old?

[size=150]28 students travel on a field trip. They bring a van that can seat 12 students. Elena and Kiran’s teacher asks other adults to drive cars that seat 3 children each to transport the rest of the students.[br][br]Elena wonders if she should use the inequality [math]12+3n>28[/math] or [math]12+3n\ge28[/math] to figure out how many cars are needed. Kiran doesn’t think it matters in this case. Do you agree with Kiran? Explain your reasoning.[/size]

In the cafeteria, there is one large 10-seat table and many smaller 4-seat tables. There are enough tables to fit 200 students. Write an inequality whose solution is the possible number of 4-seat tables in the cafeteria.

5 barrels catch rainwater in the schoolyard. Four barrels are the same size, and the fifth barrel holds 10 liters of water. Combined, the 5 barrels can hold at least 200 liters of water. Write an inequality whose solution is the possible size of each of the 4 barrels.
