Question

question 4 of 10
jess will plant up to 27 acres on her farm with wheat and corn. more than 5 acres will be planted with wheat.
let w represent the number of acres of wheat and c represent the number of acres of corn. identify two inequalities that represent this situation.

a. c < 5
b. w > 5
c. w + c ≤ 27
d. w - c ≤ 27

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the total acres

The total acres of wheat (\(w\)) and corn (\(c\)) is up to 27, so \(w + c\leq27\).

Step2: Analyze wheat acres

More than 5 acres are wheat, so \(w>5\).

Answer:

B. \(w > 5\)
C. \(w + c\leq27\)
