Respuesta :

Shane and Abha earned a team badge that required their team to collect no less than 2000 cans for recycling.

This means a minimum of 2000 cans are needed.

Abha collected 178 more cans than Shane did.

Let us suppose that the cans collected by Shane = S

So, Abha collected = S+178

The inequality to determine the cans Shane collected can be given by :

[tex]S+S+178\geq 2000[/tex]

= [tex]2S+178\geq 2000[/tex]

[tex]2S\geq 2000-178[/tex]

[tex]2S\geq 1822[/tex]

[tex]S\geq 911[/tex]
