Question

Jayna needs to earn at least 100$ for her trip to the beach. She already has 34$ saved. She wrote the following inequality to reflect how much she needs to save.

34 + s < (or equal to) 100

Is Jaynas inequality correct?

A) No, because they inequality sign is incorrect

B) No, because she still needs to save $100

C) Yes, because the amount she needs to save is less than $100

D) Yes, because she wants to earn more that $100


Someone please explain to me how to solve this!

Answer 1

the answer is A. if she wants to save at least $100, the inequality sign should be reversed. the amount she saves should be more than 100.
