Question

Manuel has $600 in a savings account at the beginning of the summer. He wants to have at least $300 in the account at the end of the summer. He withdraws $28 each week for food. Which inequality represents w, the number of weeks Manuel can withdraw money while not dropping below a $300 balance?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount he has left in his bank account is equal to the difference of his initial savings and the amount he withdrew after how many weeks. This is expressed as 600 - 28n. This should not be lesser than 300. The inequality used to express the condition is, 

                                        600 - 28n ≥ 300
