Let x be the amount of money Kris needs to earn each weekend.
The total amount Kris needs to earn during the summer is 8x.
The inequality for the amount of money Kris needs to earn each weekend is 8x + 190 ≥ 1625.
Subtracting 190 from both sides, we get 8x ≥ 1435.
Dividing both sides by 8, we get x ≥ 179.38.
The best interpretation is: Kris needs to earn at least $179.38 each weekend to meet her goal.
