Answer 1

Explanation:

A) if she starts with $61 in her saving account, write an inequality to show how much she wants to have.

- Starts with $61

- Wants AT LEAST $1500

$61 < $1500

B) how much does Kindra need to save?

If she already has $61 and she needs to get at least $1500, subtract to find out how much more she needs.

$1500 - $61 = $1,439 (she needs to save at least $1,439 more)

$1500 > $1,439
