Question

Kyle owes Jackson $180. If Kyle repays his debt at a rate of $15 per week, write and solve an inequality that represents when, in weeks, Kyle debt will be less than $60

Answer 1

180 - 15w < $60

w = week

Subtract 180 from each side

-15w < -120

Divide each side by -15

w > 8

This means that the weeks have to be more than 8.
