A local gym charges $580 per year for a membership, plus $20 for a one-week boot camp class. If Jason has less than $800 per year to spend for a gym membership and boot camp classes, which inequality can be used to find c, the greatest number of boot camp classes Jason can take in one year? 

• 580 < 20c – 800 
• 800 ≥ 580 – 20c 
• 580 ≤ 20c + 800

Nadea has $600 in her savings account. She withdraws $35 per week to buy gas for her car. Which equation can be used to determine how many weeks, w, it will take for Nadea to reduce her balance to $285? 

• (600 – 35)w = 285 
• 35w – 600 = 285 
• 600 – w = 285 
•  600 – 35w = 285
