PLEASE HELP! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!
Josh has a job mowing lawns. He charges $25 for each yard. He needs at least $400 for the new game system that he wants. Write and solve an inequality to find out how many yards he must mow to make at least $400

Let X = the number of yards he needs to mow.

Each yard he gets $25, so you would multiply 25 by x to find the total amount he makes.

Now you have 25x.


He needs at least $400 total.

At least means the amount can either equal 400 or be greater than 400.

This would make the inequality:

25X ≥ 400


Now to solve, divide both sides by 25:

25x ≥ 400 =

x ≥ 400 / 25

x ≥ 16


He needs to mow at least 16 yards.
