Given
Sue wants to buy a video that costs $24.95.
She has $3 in her pocket
a piggy bank full of quarters x
Find out the inequality can be used to represent the number of quarters sue needs to buy the game.
To proof
As given in the question
Sue wants to buy a video that costs = $24.95.
She has $3
The value of quaters in the piggy bank = x
1 $ = 4 quaters
First convert $24.95 in the quaters form
= 4 × 24.95
= 99.8 quaters
convert $3 in the quaters form
= 3 × 4
= 12 quaters
The equation become in the form
[tex]12 + x \geq 99.8[/tex]
x = 87.8 quaters
quarters sue needs to buy the game is 87.8 quaters.
Hence proved
