For homework, Fred has to read 30 minutes daily. It takes him 2 minutes per page, and he spends 4 minutes viewing graphics in the book. If x represents the number of pages he reads, then 2x + 4 ≥ 30 represents the time he reads each day. What is the fewest number of pages Fred must read to complete his homework?

He must read 13 pages or more, because 13*2=26. 26+4=30. This is your answer, and I hope it helps.
