Sari has to read a book for English class by the end of the week. She wants to read at least 200 pages in the first 5 days of the week. On average, how many pages should Sari read per day to meet her goal?

p ≥ ?

-------------------------------------------------------------------

A painter earns $15 an hour. What is the minimum number of hours he must work to earn at least $200? Write an inequality to represent this situation and solve.

A- 15h ≥ 200; h ≥ [tex]13 \frac{1}{3} [/tex]
B- 15h ≤ 200; h ≤ [tex]13 \frac{1}{3} [/tex]
C- 200h ≥ 15; h ≥ [tex] \frac{3}{40} [/tex]
D- 200h ≤ 15; h ≤ [tex] \frac{3}{40} [/tex]

For the first one, you want to divide 200 by 5 since you want to find an arrange for each day. She should read on average 40 pages a day. For part B, I think A represents it because they average $15 an hour, which 15h represents. It has to be greater or equal to 13.3 because that is the minimum that is closest to $200 if you round it up.
The first is 40.
The second is A.
