The inequality is correct, but the description of the solutions is not accurate.
The correct inequality is: 250x + 30 ≥ 200, where x is the amount Carlos earns each Saturday morning.
The solutions to this inequality are all values of x that satisfy the inequality. In this case, it means Carlos must earn at least $250 each Saturday morning in order to have at least $200 in four weeks.
Carlos is hoping to save at least $200 in the next four weeks. His mom gives him $30, and he earns money each Saturday morning at his grandmother's store. Write an inequality for the amount of money Carlos will need to earn each Saturday morning, and describe the solutions. Assume Carlos will earn the same amount each Saturday morning. (2 points) 200x+30≥ 20 , where x is the amount Carlos earns each Saturday morning. Carlos must earn at least $ 250 each Saturday morning to have at least $200 in four weeks.
