Sielani needs to ear at least $250 for her trip to the upcoming sofiball tournament. She babysits on Saturday night and ears $48. Wite and solve an inequality to show how much more Stefani needs to ear.

1 answer

Let x be the additional amount Sielani needs to earn.

$48 (earnings from babysitting) + x (additional earnings) ≥ $250

x ≥ $250 - $48
x ≥ $202

Therefore, Sielani needs to earn at least $202 more to reach her goal of $250 for the softball tournament.
