Question

Jorelle is planning a 5-day vacation. The trip will cost him $1,300.00 for airfare, food, and itineraries. He plans to stay in a hotel room for $80.00 per night. He only has $950.00 in savings, but he earns $25.00 per hour from his online tutoring services. Create a linear inequality in one variable that would best translate the problem. Determine the minimum number of hours Jorelle must tutor so he can have enough money for the trip.(1 point)

Mary Ann adds −3 to both sides of the inequality to get x≥9.
Mary Ann adds negative 3 to both sides of the inequality to get x greater-than-or-equal-to 9 .

Mary Ann divides both sides of the inequality by −3 and changes the inequality symbol to ≤ to get x≤−4.
Mary Ann divides both sides of the inequality by negative 3 and changes the inequality symbol to less-than-or-equal-to to get x less-than-or-equal-to negative 4 .

Mary Ann adds −3 to both sides of the inequality and changes the inequality symbol to ≤ to get x≤9.
Mary Ann adds negative 3 to both sides of the inequality and changes the inequality symbol to less-than-or-equal-to to get x less-than-or-equal-to 9 .
