Answer 1

You have a gift card for your favorite clothing store for the amount of $60. You have found a shirt you want to buy that costs $15. If you don't want to spend more than the amount of the gift card, which of the following inequalities could be used to determine the amount you have left to spend?

x + 15 ≥ 60
x + 15 ≥ 60

x – 15 ≥ 60
x – 15 ≥ 60

x – 15 ≤ 60
x – 15 ≤ 60

x + 15 ≤ 60

Answer 2

To solve the inequality 2.7 ≤ b + 5, we can subtract 5 from both sides to isolate b.

2.7 - 5 ≤ b + 5 - 5
-2.3 ≤ b

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is b ≥ -2.3
