Answer:

y ≤ 14x+150 or A

Explanation:

t equation say that he needs at least y amo of dollars so

it is ≤ for the sign

he already saved you money so you would add it to x to get to y

+150

and he needs to work 14 hours to get the rest of the money that he spent x hours working on

so 14x

When you put that altogether it is y ≤ 14x+150 you can also put it like

y ≤ 150+ 14x
