Problema Solution
you have an allowance of 15.00 per week. you are in a bowling league that costs 6.50 each week, and you have to save atleast 5.00 each week. write and solve an inequality to show how much you have left to spend each week
Answer provided by our tutors
On the left side of the inequality, we will write the total amount (15) minus all of the expenses in one week including the expense 'x', which signifies the extra amount left to spend each week without going into debt. On the right side we will write '0' to signify the account being completely spent. We will use the 'greater than or equal to' sign to show that we are not allowed to go into debt.
15-6.5-5-x (greater than or equal to) 0
Using Algebrator to solve for x, we get:
x is less than than or equal to $3.5
