An indy car driver has to be a certain height to fit into the race car. the following inequality 175< =3x-17< =187, where x represents the height of the driver in inches.

Given inequality : 175 ≤ 3x-17 ≤ 187, where x represents the height of the driver in inches.

Let us solve the inequality for x.

We have 17 is being subtracted in the middle.

Reverse operation of subtraction is addition. So, adding 17 on both sides and also in the middle, we get

175+17 ≤ 3x-17+17 ≤ 187+17

192  ≤ 3x ≤ 204.

Dividing by 3.

192/3  ≤ 3x/3 ≤ 204/3.

64 ≤ x ≤ 68.

Therefore, the height of the driver should be from 64 to 68 inches  to fit into the race car.

answe: it will take 4.5 hours for naomi and clair to paint an equal number of square feet

the given 6 = w/p is equivalent to 6p = w, where w is the total area of the walls and p is the area covered by a single can of paint.

knowing that 6 cans of paint will be needed, 6p = w becomes 6(6) = w = 36.   this tells us that the total area to be painted is 36 square units.
