Dan earns $5.95 per hour working after school. He needs at least $215 for his holiday shopping. Write and solve an inequality to show how many hours must he work to reach his goal?

Sagot :

[tex]h-number\ of\ hours\\\\5.95h\geq215\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 5.95\\\\h\geq\frac{215}{5.95}\\\\h\geq\frac{21500}{595}\\\\h\geq\frac{4300}{119}\\\\h\geq36\frac{16}{119}\\\\Answer:\boxed{He\ must\ work\ 37h.}[/tex]
