Emilia needs at least $240 to buy new headphones. She has already saved $30. She earns $14 per car that she washes. What is the least number of cars she can wash to buy the headphones? Define the variable.

• let x = Emilia

• let x = the number of cars she needs to wash

• let x = the number of headphones she wants to buy

• let x = the money she already saved

Emilia needs at least $240 to buy new headphones. She has already saved $30. She earns $14 per car that she washes.

What is the least number of cars she can wash to buy the headphones?

Write the inequality to the problem.

• 14x+30 ≥ 240

• 14x+30 ≤ 240

• 30x+14 ≥ 240

• 30x+14 ≤ 240

• 7x + 13y > 81

Write the linear inequality in standard form for this situation: The CRHS science department can spend no more than $2700 on textbooks this year. The department needs to buy both Biology text books, which cost $57 each, and Chemistry textbooks, which cost $72 each.

• 57x + 72y ≥ 2700

• 57x + 72y > 2700

• 57x + 72y < 2700

• 57x + 72y ≤ 2700
