Rico represents the inequality -3(8/x+5)> -16 with the sentence “the product of –3 and the quotient of 8 and the difference of a number and 5 is at least –16.” which describes rico’s error? the expression is translated incorrectly. the order of the terms in the subtraction expression should be reversed. the inequality symbol is translated incorrectly. the words “at least” should be represented as greater than or equal to instead of greater than. the inequality symbol is translated incorrectly. the words “at least” should be represented as less than or equal to instead of greater than. the expression is translated incorrectly. the numerator and the denominator of the division expression should be reversed.

The inequality symbol is translated incorrectly. The words “at least” should be represented as greater than or equal to instead of greater than

There should be x-5 instead of x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

The product of –3 and the quotient of 8 and the difference of a number and 5 is at least –16.

Let's assume that number as 'x'

so,

difference of a number and 5 =x-5

so,

the quotient of 8 and the difference of a number and 5 is

now, it is multiplied by -3

and we get

and this must be atleast -16

so, we get

so,

we can see that

The inequality symbol is translated incorrectly. The words “at least” should be represented as greater than or equal to instead of greater than

There should be x-5 instead of x+5

the answer is 31.27mph
