Question

there is $3080 in the math department fund. They need to deposit enough money in the fund to pay for a shipment work $2800, and still have $500 left for future shipments. Write an inequality to describe (d), the amount of money that needs to be deposited?

Answer 1

3080+d > = 3300

Explanation:

The first question to ask is how much money do they need in the fund?

They need the shipment costs plus the future shipment costs

2800+500 = 3300

They have 3080

Let d = how much they need to deposit

How much they have plus how much they need to deposit must be greater than or equal to how much they need.

3080+d > = 3300
