Example 3: Real-Life Applications

A school is taking a field trip with 195 students and 10 adults. Each bus can hold at most
40 students. We need to determine the smallest number of buses needed for the trip.

(a) Let n be the number of buses taken on the trip. Write and solve an inequality that

models this problem based on n.

(b)

Graph the solution on the number line
