To find out how much Maeve needs to earn each weekend, we can use the equation:

$130 + 8x ≥ $1,250

Where x represents the amount she needs to earn each weekend.

Subtract $130 from both sides to isolate x:

8x ≥ $1,120

Divide by 8 on both sides:

x ≥ $140

Thus, Maeve needs to earn at least $140 each weekend.

On a number line, this would be represented as:

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | -----o-----------|----------------
$0 - $140 - - - - - - | $1,250

Therefore, the correct answer is:

B. 140 < 180
double check please
Apologies for the error in my previous response. Let's correct it:

Lionel weighs 170 pounds. If each box of books weighs the same amount, how much can each box weigh? Solve this problem and then graph the solution on a number line.(1 point) Responses
options:
A. 200 < 300
B. 0 < 183
C. 0 < 200
D.183 < 300
To find out how much each box of books weighs, we can use the following equation:

170 pounds = x pounds (weight of each box) * n boxes

We don't have the number of boxes, so we can't solve for x yet.

However, if we consider a realistic scenario where each box of books weighs at least 1 pound, then we can set x = 1.

Thus, each box can weigh at most 183 pounds.

On a number line, this would be represented as:

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | ----o---------------------|-------------------
$0 - $183 - - - - - - | $170

Therefore, the correct answer is:

B. 0 < 183
double check please?
Apologies for the oversight. Let's reassess the problem:

To find out how much each box of books weighs, we can use the following equation:

170 pounds = x pounds (weight of each box) * n boxes

Since we don't have the number of boxes, we cannot directly determine the weight of each box.

Given only the information provided in the question, we cannot determine the exact weight of each box of books.

Therefore, the statement that can be made with certainty is that the weight of each box of books must be less than or equal to 170 pounds.

On a number line, this would be represented as:

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | ------o---------|---------------
$0 - $170

Therefore, the correct answer is:

C. 0 < 200
since i got to answers wich one is it? it is 0 < 200 or 0 < 183 or is it a different answer??
Apologies for the confusion in my responses. Let's reassess the problem and determine the correct answer:

Given that Lionel weighs 170 pounds, and each box of books weighs the same amount, and without knowing the number of boxes, we can't determine the exact weight of each box.

However, we can assume that each box weighs a positive amount. Therefore, a valid range would be 0 < weight of each box of books ≤ 170 pounds.

On a number line, this would be represented as:

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | ---o-------------------|---------------
$0 - $170

Based on this analysis, the correct answer should be:

B. 0 < 183

Thank you for your patience, and I appreciate you pointing out the inconsistencies in the previous responses.
Kris currently has $190 and plans to earn more money each of the 8 weekends this summer. She wants at least $1,625 by the end of the summer. Write and solve an inequality for the amount of money Kris needs to earn each weekend. Which answer choice best interprets the solution in the context of the problem?(1 point)
A. Kris needs to earn at least $179.38 each weekend to meet her goal.
B.Kris needs to earn $13.13 each hour to meet her goal.
C.Kris needs $179.38 more to meet her goal.
D.Kris needs to earn $105 more to meet her goal.
To find out how much Kris needs to earn each weekend, we can use the inequality:

$190 + 8x ≥ $1,625

Where x represents the amount she needs to earn each weekend.

Subtract $190 from both sides to isolate x:

8x ≥ $1,435

Divide by 8 on both sides:

x ≥ $179.38

Therefore, Kris needs to earn at least $179.38 each weekend to meet her goal.

The answer choice that best interprets the solution in the context of the problem is:

A. Kris needs to earn at least $179.38 each weekend to meet her goal.
