Question

a box holds 24 apples. if there are n boxes, what inequality shows at least 100 apples? 24 + n ≥ 100 24n ≥ 100 n - 24 ≥ 100 24n < 100

Explanation:

Step1: Determine total apples

Each box has 24 apples, \( n \) boxes have \( 24n \) apples.

Step2: Interpret "at least"

"At least 100" means total apples \( \geq 100 \), so \( 24n \geq 100 \).

Answer:

\( 24n \geq 100 \) (the second option: \( 24n \geq 100 \))
