are u sure
Yes, I am sure. Maeve needs to earn at least $1,250 by the end of the summer. Since she has $130 already, she needs to earn an additional $1,250 - $130 = $1,120.
She has 8 weekends to earn this amount, so she needs to earn $1,120 / 8 = $140 per weekend.
Therefore, the correct answer is: An illustration shows a number line labeled Maeve’s Earnings Each Weekend. The number line ranges from 0 to 2,000 in 500 unit increments. A closed point is plotted at 1,250. An arrow extends from that point to the right and goes beyond 2,000.

To find the amount of money Kris needs to earn each weekend, we can subtract the current amount she has from her goal and then divide that by the number of weekends.
Kris currently has $190 and wants at least $1,625 by the end of the summer.
The amount she needs to earn is: $1,625 - $190 = $1,435.
She has 8 weekends to earn this amount, so the amount she needs to earn each weekend is: $1,435 / 8 = $179.38.
Therefore, the correct answer is: Kris needs to earn at least $179.38 each weekend to meet her goal.

Teddy is solving the following problem: James earns $400 a week plus $5 in tips for each customer he serves. He is hoping to earn more than $1,000 this week. How many customers would he have to serve to meet his goal? Describe the solutions. Teddy writes the inequality 5x+400>1,000 , where x is the number of customers James serves. Teddy solves the inequality and finds that x>120 . How should Teddy interpret this solution in the context of the problem?(1 point)

Jada has challenged herself to do at least 100 full push-ups this week. On Sunday, she does 30 push-ups. Her arms are sore, so she decides to do fewer push-ups on the remaining days of the week. She wants to do the same number of push-ups each day for the rest of the week. Write and solve an inequality for the number of push-ups Jada needs to do each day for the rest of the week to meet her goal of 100 push-ups.

Jada needs to do at least 14 push-ups each day for the rest of the week to meet her goal.
To find the number of push-ups Jada needs to do each day for the rest of the week to meet her goal of 100 push-ups, we can subtract the 30 push-ups she already did from the total goal of 100 push-ups.
Jada needs to do at least 100 - 30 = 70 more push-ups.
Since she wants to do the same number of push-ups each day for the rest of the week, we need to divide the 70 push-ups evenly among the remaining days.
To do this, we divide 70 by the number of remaining days.
If there are 7 days in a week and Jada already did push-ups on Sunday, that leaves 6 remaining days.
Therefore, Jada needs to do at least 70 / 6 = 11.67 push-ups each day.
Since Jada cannot do a fraction of a push-up, we round up to the nearest whole number.
Therefore, the correct answer is: Jada needs to do at least 12 push-ups each day for the rest of the week to meet her goal.
Jada needs to do at least 100 - 30 = 70 more push-ups.
Since she wants to do the same number of push-ups each day for the rest of the week, we need to divide the 70 push-ups evenly among the remaining days.

To find out how much each box can weigh, we need to subtract the weight of Lionel and the weight of the empty elevator from the maximum weight capacity of the elevator.
The maximum weight capacity of the elevator is 2,000 pounds.
Lionel weighs 170 pounds.
Let's assume the weight of each box is x pounds.
Therefore, the equation becomes:
10x + 170 ≤ 2000
Subtracting 170 from both sides:
10x ≤ 2000 - 170
10x ≤ 1830
Dividing both sides by 10:
x ≤ 183
Therefore, each box can weigh at most 183 pounds.
Thus, the correct interpretation is: An illustration shows a number line labeled Weight of Each Box in the Elevator. The number line ranges from 0 to 200 in 50 unit increments. A closed point is plotted at 0. A line extends from that point to the right, connecting with a closed point at 183.
