Respuesta :

Answer:

about $709 per month

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so in order to solve this question, we should follow this formula:

3,000 + 24x [tex]\geq[/tex] 20,000

where 24 is the amount of time we have and x is the variable we are using as to show the unknown amount of money earned per month.

3,000 + 24x [tex]\geq[/tex] 20,000

-3,000               -3,000

24x [tex]\geq[/tex] 17,000

/24           /24

x [tex]\geq[/tex] approximately 709 dollars

so, we substitute x for 709

3,000 + 24(709) [tex]\geq[/tex] 20,000

3,000 + 17,016 [tex]\geq[/tex] 20,000

20,016 [tex]\geq[/tex] 20,000

which is true

Hope this helps :)
