Question

1. for the inequality $c \geq 76$, tami says 80 and 100 are both solutions. is she correct? explain why or why not.
2. for the inequality $12 > d$, jarod says 9 and 12 are both solutions. is he correct? explain why or why not.

Explanation:

Step1: Check Tami's first value

Substitute $c=80$ into $c\geq76$:
$80\geq76$, which is true.

Step2: Check Tami's second value

Substitute $c=100$ into $c\geq76$:
$100\geq76$, which is true.

Step3: Check Jarod's first value

Substitute $d=9$ into $12>d$:
$12>9$, which is true.

Step4: Check Jarod's second value

Substitute $d=12$ into $12>d$:
$12>12$, which is false.

Answer:

1. Tami is correct. Both 80 and 100 are greater than 76, so they satisfy $c\geq76$.
2. Jarod is not correct. 9 satisfies $12>d$, but 12 does not (since 12 is not greater than 12).
