Stefani needs to earn at least $250 for her trip to the upcoming softball tournament. She babysits on Saturday night and earns $48. Write and solve an inequality to show how much more Stefani needs to earn. Show your work.(2 points)
note: write it like a 6th grader would
Let x be the amount of money Stefani needs to earn.
Stefani already earned $48, so we can write the inequality as:
48 + x ≥ 250
To solve for x, we need to isolate it by subtracting 48 from both sides:
48 + x - 48 ≥ 250 - 48
x ≥ 202
So, Stefani needs to earn at least $202 more for her trip.
