Answer 1

Answer:

Inequality:

x=14

Step-by-step explanation:

Billy charges $15 to mow a yard.

Billy charges $15 to mow a yard. He needs at least $200 for the new bicycle that he wants.

Let he bought x number of mow

Cost of each mow = $15

Cost of x number of mow = 15x

He had atleast $200

15x should be greater than 200

Inequality form:

Now we solve for x

He should buy atleast 14 mow.

Hence, 14 yards must he mow to make $200
