Question

directions: use this information to answer parts a and b. reiko’s goal is to practice the drums for at least 800 minutes per week. this week, reiko has already practiced for 175 minutes. if she practices for 35 minutes each session, reiko wants to know how many sessions are left for her to make her goal. part a complete the inequality for this situation by dragging the correct number or symbol into each box. show hints

Explanation:

Step1: Define Variables

Let \( s \) be the number of remaining sessions. Reiko has already practiced 175 minutes, and each remaining session is 35 minutes, so total practice time is \( 175 + 35s \). Her goal is at least 800 minutes, so the inequality is \( 175 + 35s \geq 800 \).

Step2: Identify Components

• The first box (left of \( s \)): 35 (coefficient of \( s \))
• The second box (operation): \( + \) (to add already practiced and remaining session time)
• The third box (constant term): 175 (already practiced minutes)
• The fourth box (inequality symbol): \( \geq \) (at least means greater than or equal to)
• The fifth box (goal): 800 (minimum minutes needed)

Answer:

From top (or left - to - right for the boxes related to the inequality structure \( 175 + 35s \geq 800 \)):

• The first box (with \( s \)): 35
• The second box (operation): \( + \)
• The third box (constant): 175
• The fourth box (inequality): \( \geq \)
• The fifth box (goal): 800

(Note: The order of filling may depend on the interface's box arrangement, but the inequality structure is \( 175 + 35s \geq 800 \))
