Given

For each diamond you collect, you earn 80 point

earn 100 bonus points by completing the level in less than 2 minutes.

earn more than 1220 points to continue on to the next level

Find the inequality that represents the numbers dd of diamonds you must collect in less than 2 minutes to advance to the next level.

To proof

As given in the question

For each diamond earn point = 80

bonus points by completing the level in less than 2 minutes = 100

earn more than 1220 points to continue on to the next level

Let us assume that the number of diamond = d

The inequality written in the form

we get


80d + 100 \geq 1220

now solving the above equation


80d \geq1120


d \geq14

Thus the numbers of diamonds you must collect in less than 2 minutes to advance to the next level be 14.

Hence proved
