thank you

To go to the softball tournament, Stefani needs $250. She babysits and earns $48 on Saturday night. We need to find out how much more money she needs to earn. Let's call that X.

We can write the inequality like this:
48 + X ≥ 250

To solve it, we need to subtract 48 from both sides:
48 - 48 + X ≥ 250 - 48
X ≥ 202

So, Stefani needs to earn at least $202 more to go to the softball tournament.
