Question

Briyana has $150, and she needs to save at least $560 for a spring break trip. If she can save $45 per week, how long will it take her to save enough money?

Let w = weeks saving money. Write an inequality to describe the situation.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Goal/$560 Saved /$I50

Bryan has already Saved $150 So 1st Subtract (-) $150 from $560.

`560 - 150 = 410`

So now we know the New remaining balance is $410.

Next divide (÷) the remaining balance of $410 by what Bryiana Can save a Week to determine how many weeks it will take her to Save For the Spring Break trip.

Wkly Savings $45

SO $410 ÷ $45

`410 / 45 = 9.1`

So it will take Bryiana approximately 9 in a half weeks to Save for her spring bring trip goal of $560

Answer 2

Answer: 45w + 150> 560

Step-by-step explanation: She can save $45 per week, so the amount of money she can save in w weeks is $45w.

She has $150 already with her, so the total amount of money saved is given by (45w + 150).

Now, since she needs to save at least $560, so we must have

45w + 150 > 560.
