Answer: L greater than 31
Step-by-step explanation:
Trevor is swimming laps to raise at over 100 dollars for the local food bank. He earns $1.85 per lap and has already swum 23 laps.
This means that the total amount that he has raised is number of laps that he has swum × the amount he earns per lap. Therefore,
Amount that he has already raised
= 1.85 × 23 = $42.55
100 - 42.55 = 57.45
He still needs to raise an amount greater than $57.45
To raise this amount, he needs to swim more laps. Number of laps that he needs to swim will be
57.45/1.85 = 31.05
Approximately 31 laps
Let the number of laps that he needs to swim be L
The inequality to show how many more laps Trevor needs to swim in order to raise more than $100 will be
L greater than 31
I believe it’s -8 as if you add nothing to -8 which in this case is zero the integer would stay the same.
Answer:
40 divided by 100 to get .4 times 85 to get 34
