Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be the number of cars Grace washes this week

Total earnings would be ; (price * n) = $7n

Subtract the amount she will save to get the balance = 7n-29

a.)Since she wants to have at least $56 as the balance to spend, the inequality will be;

7n-29[tex]\geq 56[/tex]

b.) Solving the inequality to get the number of cars

7n-29[tex]\geq[/tex]56

[tex]7n\geq 56+29\\ \\ 7n\geq 85\\ \\ n\geq 12.14[/tex]

Therefore Grace must wash at least 12 cars
