The inequality that represents the amount of money Kris needs to earn each weekend is:
8x + 190 ≥ 1625
where x represents the amount of money Kris needs to earn each weekend.
To solve for x, we subtract 190 from both sides of the inequality:
8x ≥ 1435
Then, we divide both sides of the inequality by 8:
x ≥ 179.38
Therefore, the best interpretation of the solution in the context of the problem is:
Kris needs to earn at least $179.38 each weekend to meet her goal.
