Grace will receive $50 plus $5 per child for babysitting this afternoon. She is hoping to make at least $63 to buy a new video game tonight. How many children does she need to babysit. Write an inequality

Answer 1

Let "x" represent the number of children she needs to babysit.

The amount she will receive for babysitting x children is $50 + $5x.

The inequality that represents her goal to make at least $63 can be written as:

$50 + $5x ≥ $63
