Tania has already saved $25.75. She needs at least $53.88 to buy a set of headphones. Write and solve an inequality that shows how much more she needs to earn to buy headphones.

Hi, to answer this question we have to add the amount of money saved by Tania (25) and the amount of money she needs to earn (x). That expression must be higher or equal to the price of the headphones (53.88)

Mathematically speaking

x + 25.75 ≥ 53.88

Solving:

x ≥ 53.88 -25.75

x ≥ 28.13

She needs to earn $28.13 more to buy the headphones.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Answer:

x + 25.75 ≥ 53.8

x ≥ 53.88 -25.75

x ≥ 28.13

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,Tania has already saved $25.75. She needs at least $53.88 to buy a set of headphones. Write and solve an inequality that shows how much more she needs to earn to buy headphones.

If Tania already has $25.75 in her possession and she has to save a minimum of $53.88 dollars in order to be able to purchase her headphones,the remaining amount of money left for her to save up will be

x + 25.75 ≥ 53.88

x ≥ 53.88 -25.75

x ≥ 28.13

The above is the amount left for her to save up so as to be able to purchase the headphones she desires.
