Create a real world equality problem, then solve:

Example Problem:

Ana sells at least 220 shirts:

Ana Sold 85 shirts in the first 3 weeks of the month:

How many shirts must Ana sell in the last week of the month?



Solution:

Let S = the number of shirts Ana sells in the last week of the month.

Total Number of Shirts for the month must be greater than 220:

We Write: 85 + S ≥ 220

We Solve the inequality by Subtracting 85 from both sides: S ≥ 135

Therefore, Ana must sell 135 or more shirts in the last week to go on the school trip.


Solve: 85 + s ≥ 220 ========> S ≥ 135

Let's solve your inequality step-by-step.

85 + s ≥ 220

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the inequality.

s + 85 ≥ 220

Step 2: Subtract 85 from both sides.

s + 85 − 85 ≥ 220 − 85

s ≥ 135

Answer:

s ≥ 135




Check Problem:

85 + s ≥ 220 ========> S ≥ 135

We see that =====> 85 + 135 = 220

If Ana sells 135, or more shirts, The total number of shirts she sells that month will be 220 or more ========> Answer Checked
