To solve this inequality, we need to set up an equation.
Let's assume the amount of money the family brings to the amusement park is "m".
After paying a $5 parking fee, they will have $21 to spend. So, the amount of money they will have after paying the parking fee can be represented as "m - 5".
Since they will have at least $21, we can set up the following inequality:
m - 5 ≥ 21
To solve for "m", we can add 5 to both sides of the inequality:
m - 5 + 5 ≥ 21 + 5
Simplifying the equation:
m ≥ 26
Therefore, the family must bring at least $26 to the amusement park in order to have at least $21 remaining after paying the $5 parking fee.
