would like to pannaurchase a new bike that costs $205. she already has $34 saved. if she saves a. maximum of $12 a week, the following inequality can be used to find the minimum number of weeks, w, it will take anna to save the money to purchase the bike. 12w+34>205

Answer 1

To find the minimum number of weeks it will take Anna to save enough money to purchase the bike, we can solve the inequality:

12w + 34 > 205

Subtract 34 from both sides of the inequality:

12w > 205 - 34

12w > 171

Then, divide both sides by 12 to solve for w:

w > 171/12

w > 14.25

Since the number of weeks must be a whole number, the minimum number of weeks Anna will need to save enough money to purchase the bike is 15 weeks.
