Sophia is saving money for a new bicycle. The bicycle will cost at least $623. Sophia makes $8.22 per hour. Which inequality could be used find the number of hours Sophia needs to work to make enough money to buy a new bicycle? $8.22h > $623 $8.22h ≤ $623 $8.22h ≥ $623 $8.22h < $623

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can she buy a bicycle with less that $623?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, if she needs at least $623, the we know that it must be able to be equal to $623

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Using that information, we can exclude A and D.

OpenStudy (landon34):

ok.

OpenStudy (landon34):

i got one more question. Which of the following expressions represents the solution to -2x ≤ -10? x ≤ -5 x ≤ 5 x ≥ -5 x ≥ 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D

OpenStudy (landon34):

ok, thanks.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We know that x cannot be negative because two negative numbers would make a positive number, and we want -10 We also know that x cannot be less that five because we need it to equal -10 or lower.

OpenStudy (landon34):

ok. thank you.
