Santiago wants to walk at least 500 miles before the end of this year. He has already walked 437 miles, and there are 36 days left in the year.

Which inequality can be used to find x, the number of miles he should walk each day to meet his goal?


CLEAR CHECK

437−36x≥500

500≤36+437x

437+36x≥500

500≤473x

Answer:

437+36x≥500

Explanation:

At x miles per day, Santiago will walk 36x miles in 36 days. He wants the total of that distance and the 437 miles he's already walked to be at least 500:

36x +437 ≥ 500 . . . . . . . matches the 3rd choice
