Andre is making paper cranes to decorate for a party. He plans to make one large paper crane for a centerpiece and several smaller paper cranes to put around the table. It takes Andre 10 minutes to make the centerpiece and 3 minutes to make each small crane. He will only have 30 minutes to make the paper cranes once he gets home.
Andre wrote the inequality 3x + 10 ≤ 30 to plan his time. Describe what x, 3x, 10, and 30 represent in this inequality.
Solve Andre’s inequality and explain what the solution means.

6 small cranes

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 10 is less than or equal to 30

3 is the minutes for the small cranes

X is the amount of small cranes

10 is the minutes for the large crane

30 is the total time limit

first, subtract 10 from 30, which gives you 20 so

3x is less than or equal to 20.

to figure this out, divide 20 by 3, which gives you 6 with a remainder of two minutes.

Andre can make 6 small cranes.
