Glenn has $1,250 in his savings account. In order to avoid bank fees, Glenn must keep a minimum $ 150 in his account. His cell phone costs him $35 per month. Use an inequality to determine how many months Glenn can pay for his cell phone before he would incur fees?

Answer :

EXPLANATION:

To formulate an inequality, we must know what data the exercise gives us that allows us to establish the inequality.

For example:

total cost counts: 1250

minimum on account: 150

x is equal number of months

inequality remains as follows:

[tex]150\ge x(35)=1250[/tex]

This is another possible inequality as suggested in the exercise,the basis for inequality is the minimum 150 that you must take into account.

[tex]1250\ge35x\leq150[/tex]

Look, when it is equal to or less than 150 commission is charged.that's why I put it the first way.
