Answer:

The situation can be modeled by the inequality is:

You start with $5 and save $10 a week until you have at least $45 ⇒ A

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the linear equation is y = m x  + b, where

  • m is the rate of change (constant value per period)
  • b is the initial value (value y at x = 0)
  • If y is at least a, that means y ≥ a (m x + b ≥ a)
  • If y is at most a, that means y ≤ a (m x + b ≤ a)

∵ 5 + 10 w ≥ 45

∵ b + m x ≥ a

∴ b = 5 , m = 10 , ≥ is at least and a = 45

That means:

→ The initial value is 5

→ The rate of change is 10

→ The value is at least 45

∴ You start with $5

∴ You save $10 per week

∴ You have at least $45

The situation can be modeled by the inequality is:

You start with $5 and save $10 a week until you have at least $45.
