Artie pulls with 200 pounds of force while
Janet pulls with 60 pounds of force. In
order to make this a fair contest, Janet
enlists the help of her friends Trudi, Sherri,
andyBridget who pull with 20, 25, and 55
pounds respectively. Write an inequality
describing the minimum amount Janet's
fourth friend, Tommy, must pull to beat
Artie.

Answer:

Tommy would have to pull at least 40.0000000..... something to beat Artie but the closest whole number is 41 becouse it has to be over 200

Step-by-step explanation:

200 /= 60 + 20 +25 + 55 + x

200/= 160 + x - 160 both sides

40 = x
