Answer:

3+1.25x≥13.50

Explanation:

In this context this means that the number of chores and the money she gets from it in addition to her $3 needs to be at least $13.50. To solve this, isolate x by subtracting 3 from both sides and then dividing both sides by 1.25 to find your answer. Hope this helps :D
