A warehouse holds 460 boxes. They ship out 65 boxes each week. After how many weeks will they have less than 100 boxes remaining? Write and solve an inequality that can be used to determine how many weeks it will take for the warehouse to have less than 100 boxes.

• x < -5.54 weeks

• x > 5.54 weeks

• 460 - 65x < 100

• 65x + 460 < 100
