$0.25 (x-1) + $1.75 < $15

OpenStudy (anonymous):

make sense?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wait so the awnser would be....?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

$0.25 + $1.75x < $15; x< 8 miles??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A. $1.75 + $0.25x < $15; x < 53 miles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

THANK YOU SO MUCH

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because the low fee of $0.25 depends on the miles x and total must be <$15

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I only have one more...

Malcolm has $638.54 in his checking account. He must maintain a $500 balance to avoid a fee. he wrote a check for $159.50 today. Write and solve an inequality to solve for the least amount of money he need to deposit to avoid the fee A. 638.54 + 159.50 - x > 500; x > 298.04 B. 638.54 - 159.50 + x > 500; x > 298.04 C. 638.54 - 159.50 + x < 500; x < 298.04

OpenStudy (anonymous):

he must maintain a balance $500, so balance>$500

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
