Tom is the deli manager at a grocery store. he needs to schedule employees to staff the deli department at least 260 person-hours per week.

If you would like to find the inequality to determine the number of full-time employees Tom must schedule, you can calculate this using the following steps:

n ... the number of full-time employees

260 <= 20 + n * 40
260 - 20 <= n * 40
240 <= n * 40
n >= 240/40
n >= 6 full-time employees

The correct result would be at least 6 full-time employees.
