Your goal is to save at $240.00 over the next 4 weeks. How much money must you save each week in order to meet that goal? Write and solve an inequality. Show your work
Let x be the amount of money you need to save each week.
The total amount of money saved over 4 weeks will be 4x.
We need to solve the inequality 4x ≥ 240.00.
Dividing both sides of the inequality by 4, we get x ≥ 60.00.
Therefore, you must save at least $60.00 each week in order to meet your goal.
