Julia is allowed to watch no more than 5 hours of television a week. So far this week, she has watched 1.5 hours. Write and solve an inequality to show how many hours of television Julia can still watch this week?
Because Julia can watch 5 hours of TV a week, but no more than that, then the inequality for that is x≤5
Since Julia has watched 1.5 hours so far, we have a new inequality of 1.5+x≤5 and x will be how many hours she'll have left to watch TV.
1.5+x≤5
x≤3.5
So Julia, in conclusion, has 3.5 hours left to watch TV until she reaches her maximum of 5 hours.
