QuestionEquations and Inequalities Solving a word problem using a one-step linear inequality
Bob runs each lap in 7 minutes. He will run at least 77 minutes today. What are the possible numbers of laps he will run today? Use n\boldsymbol{n} for the number of laps he will run today. Write your answer as an inequality solved for nn.

Studdy Solution
Solve the inequality for n n .
To isolate n n , divide both sides of the inequality by 7:
n777 n \geq \frac{77}{7}
n11 n \geq 11
Thus, the possible numbers of laps Bob will run today is:
n11 \boxed{n \geq 11}
