Answer:

Explanation:

Samantha had $620 in her savings. She wanted to have at least $200 in her account after her five days in San Diego. This means that the amount that she can spend in 5 days would be her savings minus the least amount that she wants to have left. It becomes 620 - 200 = $420

If she decides to spend her spendable amount of $420 equally per day, it means that each day, she will spend 420/5 = $84

The inequality representing the amount that she can spend for each day will be

Let y = the amount that she can pend each day. Then, it will be

y lesser than or equal to 84
