Let's assume the number of children Grace needs to babysit is 'x'.
The amount Grace will receive for babysitting one child is $5.
So, the total amount Grace will receive for babysitting 'x' children can be calculated as 5x.
She will also receive an additional $50.
Hence, the total amount she will receive for babysitting 'x' children will be 5x + 50.
Grace hopes to make at least $63, so we can set up the following equation:
5x + 50 ≥ 63
Now let's solve the equation:
5x + 50 ≥ 63
Subtract 50 from both sides:
5x ≥ 63 - 50
5x ≥ 13
Divide both sides by 5:
x ≥ 13/5
Since Grace can't babysit a fraction of a child, she will need to babysit at least 3 children to make $63 or more.
(Note: If she babysits 2 children, she will only make $60.)
