Question

Elise has budgeted $800 in her checking account to spend during the summer for entertainment. She would like to have at least $200 available at the end of summer. If elise withdraws $50 per week, which inequality could she use to determine the greatest number of weekly withdrawals (w) she can make without exceeding her budget?

Answer 1

To represent the inequality, let us define some variables first:

lets say 'w' represents the greatest number of weekly withdrawals:

Elise has budget of $800 in her checking account:

If she withdraws $50 each week then in 'w' number of weeks she has withdrawn $50 \times x$ dollars.

The amount left in her checking account is given by:

$800-50\times x$

Now, she needs to have at least $200 available at the end of summer.

Which means:

$800-50\times x\geq 200$

The inequality $800-50x\geq 200$ can be used to determine the greatest number of weekly withdrawals.
