Gavin has $50,000 with which to start a new business. He wants to maintain a cash balance of more than $26,000. If w is the amount Gavin withdraws to pay for expenses, the inequality representing the situation is . The amount he can withdraw is given by
representing the solution choices are A. 50,000-w<26,000 B. 26,000-w<50,000 C. 50,000-w>26,000 D. 76,000-w>50,000
The amount he can withdraw is A. w>26,000 B. w<26,000 C. w>24,000 D. w<24,000
50,000 - 26,000 is 24,000. So, for the second part, what could be the only possible answer?
Keep in mind, that the amount of money left must be GREATER than 26,000. :)
Okay those were stupid answers I just caught how to do it XD
you know how now?
or you still need help?
I'd like help to better understand it
ok
I believe the answers are A. and D.
for the 1st part, you are almost correct. Try again :)
Okay second choices would have to be C. and A.
Not c and a i meant c and b
D was correct for the second one, you didn't need to change it.
think of it this way:
for the second part: if you take away more than 24,000 dollars, you would have less than 26,000 dollars left. Which is not what you want. For the second part, that answer is D
you see why?
Oh okay I get that
good :)
now that you know that, what do you think the 1st one is?
C?
because he wanted more then 26,000 left
correct! Good job :)
