Solve an inequality that shows the amount of money (m) that a family must bring to an amusement park so they will have at least $21 to spend after paying a $5 parking fee.

Answer 1

To solve the inequality, we need to account for the $5 parking fee that the family must pay as well as the $21 they must have left over after paying the fee.

The inequality can be represented as:
m - 5 ≥ 21

To solve for m, we can add 5 to both sides of the inequality:
m ≥ 26

Therefore, the family must bring at least $26 to the amusement park so they will have at least $21 left after paying the $5 parking fee.
