Chris types at an average speed of 35 words per minute. he has already typed 1,500 words of his final paper. the paper has to be more than 3,250 words. which of the following inequalities could be used to solve for x, the number of minutes it will take chris to type his paper?

1750 + 35x ≥ 3250

Step-by-step explanation:

Average speed = 35 words

He has already typed 1500 words on his final paper

The paper must be more than 3250 words.

To find at least how many more words he has to type, we will subtract 1500 from 3250

3250 - 1500 = 1750 words

The equation will be 35x ≥ 1750

x is the number of minutes

The equation could be

1750 + 35x ≥ 3250

answer: city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

total annual rainfall a city record = 40 inches

this year, total rainfall recorded = 37.6 inches

number of inches of rainfall   is needed to match the record of 40 inches is given by

hence, city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.
